[PATCH v1] of/platform: Unconditionally pause/resume sync state during kernel init

[Saravana Kannan]

Commit 5e6669387e22 ("of/platform: Pause/resume sync state during init
and of_platform_populate()") paused/resumed sync state during init only
if Linux had parsed and populated a devicetree.

However, the check for that (of_have_populated_dt()) can change between
initcall levels when device tree unittests are enabled. This causes an
unmatched pause/resume of sync state. To avoid this, just
unconditionally pause/resume sync state during init.

I _think_ (but I have not actually checked the code) that enabling unittests
is not the only way that of_root can be changed from NULL (thus changing
the value returned by of_have_populated_dt()).  I _think_ that applying
an overlay on top of an empty devicetree will have the same result.  So
I would change the following paragraph:

to something like:

However, the check for that (of_have_populated_dt()) can change
after of_platform_default_populate_init() executes.  One example
of this is when devicetree unittests are enabled.  This causes an
nmatched pause/resume of sync state. To avoid this, just
unconditionally pause/resume sync state during init.
