I fail to see how probe behavior is related to properties of hardware. You describe OS behavior, not hardware. This does not look like belonging to DT. Best regards, Krzysztof

So your recommendation is to replace probe with device init, in the description of the property and the commit message? Sajid

No, I asked there a question for which we need answer. device init is also OS task... You need to explain why this is a property of hardware, not OS behavior. Best regards, Krzysztof

Actually let's be clearer - your cover letter says: "In some systems the link is not brought up during probe, but later in the context of an end-point turning on. (...) to skip this loop." so this is pure Linux OS stuff. You just want to control driver behavior from DT. Not at all DT property. Best regards, Krzysztof
Thanks Krzysztof. I will attempt to send a new patch to address the delay solely in the driver.
