The bug is also reported here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110751
This patch fixes the problem (both for me and others):
From: Martin Wilck <Martin.Wilck@...fujitsu.com>
Since b8b2c7d845d5, platform_drv_probe() is called for all platform
devices. If drv->probe is NULL, and dev_pm_domain_attach() fails,
platform_drv_probe() will return the error code from dev_pm_domain_attach().
This causes real_probe() to enter the "probe_failed" path and set
dev->driver to NULL. Before b8b2c7d845d5, real_probe() would assume
success if both dev->bus->probe and drv->probe were missing. As a result,
a device and driver could be "bound" together just by matching their names;
this doesn't work any more after b8b2c7d845d5.
This change broke the assumptions of certain drivers; for example, the TPM
code has long assumed that platform driver and device with matching name
could be bound in this way. That assumption may cause such drivers to
fail with Oops during initialization after applying this change. Failure
in suspend/resume tests under qemu has also been reported.
This patch restores the previous (4.3.0 and earlier) behavior of
platform_drv_probe() in the case when the associated platform driver has
no "probe" function.
Fixes: b8b2c7d845d5 ("base/platform: assert that dev_pm_domain callbacks are called unconditionally")
