usb: xhci-plat: properly handle probe deferral for devm_clk_get()
commit de95c40d5beaa47f6dc8fe9ac4159b4672b51523 upstream.
On some platforms, the clocks might be registered by a platform
driver. When this is the case, the clock platform driver may very well
be probed after xhci-plat, in which case the first probe() invocation
of xhci-plat will receive -EPROBE_DEFER as the return value of
devm_clk_get().
The current code handles that as a normal error, and simply assumes
that this means that the system doesn't have a clock for the XHCI
controller, and continues probing without calling
clk_prepare_enable(). Unfortunately, this doesn't work on systems
where the XHCI controller does have a clock, but that clock is
provided by another platform driver. In order to fix this situation,
we handle the -EPROBE_DEFER error condition specially, and abort the
XHCI controller probe(). It will be retried later automatically, the
clock will be available, devm_clk_get() will succeed, and the probe()
will continue with the clock prepared and enabled as expected.
In practice, such issue is seen on the ARM64 Marvell 7K/8K platform,
where the clocks are registered by a platform driver.
