Hi all,
After merging the modules tree, today's linux-next boot (powerpc
pseries_le_defconfig) failed like this:

I have used the modules tree from next-20240423 for today.
This is a qemu boot test using:
qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries -cpu POWER8 -m 2G -vga none -nographic -kernel ~/next/powerpc_pseries_le_defconfig/vmlinux -initrd ./ppc64le-rootfs.cpio.gz

This should fix it for now, I'll rework initialization a bit in v6

I added the above to today's merge of the modules tree and it made the
boot failure go away.
