<4>[    0.760353] mediatek,efuse: probe of 11f10000.efuse failed with error -17

This efuse probe failure causes the probe failure of other components that
depend on it, including the display pipeline:

/soc/dsi-phy@11e50000
/soc/dsi@14014000
/soc/efuse@11f10000
/soc/i2c@11008000/anx7625@58
/soc/i2c@11008000/anx7625@58/aux-bus/panel
/soc/thermal@1100b000

There is a series already addressing the issue [2]. The first two patches have
been merged into the mediatek tree, but that tree isn't currently being
integrated into linux-next. Besides that, patch 3 hasn't been merged into the
nvmem tree yet, and it is required in order to solve the issue.

I'm sending this regression report so we can properly track the regression while
the fixes don't land on linux-next.

Thanks,
Nícolas
