It looks that simply propagating return value from
exynos5_counters_get() in exynos5_dmc_get_status() fixes the boot:
# dmesg | grep dmc
[ 8.838754] exynos-ppmu: new PPMU device registered 10d00000.ppmu
(ppmu-event3-dmc0_0)
[ 8.861344] exynos-ppmu: new PPMU device registered 10d10000.ppmu
(ppmu-event3-dmc0_1)
[ 8.868488] exynos5-dmc 10c20000.memory-controller: couldn't probe
performance counters
[ 8.874417] exynos-ppmu: new PPMU device registered 10d60000.ppmu
(ppmu-event3-dmc1_0)
[ 8.886612] exynos-ppmu: new PPMU device registered 10d70000.ppmu
(ppmu-event3-dmc1_1)
[ 9.396769] exynos5-dmc 10c20000.memory-controller: DMC initialized,
in irq mode: 0
I'm still curious why it freezes if getting performance counters is not
possible.
Best regards
