Hi Bartlomiej,

I am seeing the "no suspend clk specified" message in dmesg.
After that it sets the exynos->susp_clk = NULL and starts
calling clk_prepare_enable(exynos->susp_clk);

That can't be good. If you see the logic right above this
one for exynos->clk, it returns error and fails the probe.
This this case it doesn't, but tries to use null susp_clk.

I believe this patch is necessary.

thanks,
