you need to add the commit description (whatever was the mail's subject)
here too. And you should put in Cc the author or those commits too,
otherwise we can't poke into their brains to understand what they were
thinking when they originally wrote those patches.

To me the real fix would be add the missing pm_runtime_get_sync(). On
probe() we're actually accessing MUSB's address space which needs it's
clocks turned on. I guess it's only working now by chance, probably
because glue layer calls pm_runtime_get_sync() to access it's own
address space and that uses the same clocks.

Hema, since this was introduced by a patch of yours, care to check this
patch ? You _do_ say on your original commit that pm_runtime_get_sync()
is called during probe, but you're not doing so. Was that just a mistake
on the original commit ?
