Subject: [PATCH] drivers: soc: xilinx: Call InitFinalize from late_initcall_sync instead of probe

From: Rajan Vaja <rajan.vaja@...inx.com>

Initially all devices are in power up state. Firmware expect that
processor should call InitFinalize API once it have requested devices
which are required so that it can turn off all unused devices and
save power. From Linux, PM driver calls InitFinalize to inform the
firmware that it can power down the unused devices. Upon
InitFinalize() call firmware power downs all unused devices.

There are chances that PM driver is probed along with or before other
device drivers. So in that case some of the devices may not be
requested from firmware which is done by genpd driver. Due to that
firmware will consider those devices as unused and firmware will power
down those devices. Later when any device driver is probed, genpd
driver will ask firmware to power up that device using request node
API. So for those devices, power transition will be like on->off->on
which creates unnecessary power glitch to those devices.

To avoid such unnecessary power transitions and as ideal behavior
InitFinalize should be called after all drivers are probed. So call
InitFinalize from late_initcall_sync.
