Oops.

While I have your ear: do I need to check for dev->parent == NULL before
calling dev_get_regmap? I see find_dr will call
(dev->parent)->devres_head... but specifically "does every device have a
valid parent?"

Because of this conditional:

Don't add it if it is already there.


This might get interesting... The soc uses the HSIO regmap by way of
syscon. Among other things, drivers/phy/mscc/phy-ocelot-serdes.c. If
dev->parent has all the regmaps, what role does syscon play?

But that's a problem for another day...

I came to the same conclusion. Hopefully I'll button up v12 today.
