Hi Kai-Heng,

Thanks for the patch. But we found there are some problems on different
platform. We will provide another solution for this case.


Hi Angelo,

Because the problem is caused by mt7912e enabled and some status was
changed to an unpreditable value durgin boot process, we may have to
force reset devices in probe(). We still try to find out a good way to
do it and will post the patch once the verification is done.

Deren
