From: Dmitry Osipenko <[email protected]>
The cedrus_hw_resume() crashes with NULL deference on driver probe if
runtime PM is disabled because it uses platform data that hasn't been
set up yet. Fix this by setting the platform data earlier during probe.

Does it even work without PM? Maybe it would be better if Cedrus would select
PM in Kconfig.

I cannot comment myself on this, but it does not seem to invalidate this
Dmitry's fix.

If NULL pointer dereference happens only when PM is disabled, then it does. I
have PM always enabled and I never experienced above issue.

Originally this fix was needed when I changed cedrus_hw_probe() to do
the rpm-resume while was debugging the hang issue and then also noticed
that the !PM should be broken. It's a good common practice for all
drivers to have the drv data set early to avoid such problems, hence it
won't hurt to make this change anyways.
In practice nobody disables PM other than for debugging purposes and !PM
handling is often broken in drivers. I assume that it might be even
better to enable PM for all Allwiner SoCs and remove !PM handling from
all the affected drivers, like it was done for Tegra some time ago.

There's still a bug even with PM enabled: the v4l2 device is exposed to
userspace, and therefore userspace could trigger a PM resume, before
platform_set_drvdata() is called.
