Linux kernel source tree
Probing peripherals in the AON and PERI domains, such as the PVT thermal
sensor and the PWM controller, can lead to boot hangs or unresponsive
devices on the LPi4A board. The root cause is that their parent bus
clocks ('CLK_CPU2AON_X2H' and the 'CLK_PERISYS_APB' clocks) are
automatically gated by the kernel's power-saving mechanisms when the bus
is perceived as idle.
Alternative solutions were investigated, including modeling the parent
bus in the Device Tree with 'simple-pm-bus' or refactoring the clock
driver's parentage. The 'simple-pm-bus' approach is not viable due to
the lack of defined bus address ranges in the hardware manual and its
creation of improper dependencies on the 'pm_runtime' API for consumer
drivers.
Therefore, applying the'`CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED' flag directly to the
essential bus clocks is the most direct and targeted fix. This prevents
the kernel from auto-gating these buses and ensures peripherals remain
accessible.
This change fixes the boot hang associated with the PVT sensor and
resolves the functional issues with the PWM controller.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
