Stephan Gerhold 7946a10f8d drm/msm/gpu: Fix crash when throttling GPU immediately during boot
commit b71717735be48d7743a34897e9e44a0b53e30c0e upstream.

There is a small chance that the GPU is already hot during boot. In that
case, the call to of_devfreq_cooling_register() will immediately try to
apply devfreq cooling, as seen in the following crash:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000000014110
  pc : a6xx_gpu_busy+0x1c/0x58 [msm]
  lr : msm_devfreq_get_dev_status+0xbc/0x140 [msm]

   ...

At this point we haven't initialized the GMU at all yet, so we cannot read
the GMU registers inside a6xx_gpu_busy(). A similar issue was fixed before
in commit 6694482a70 ("drm/msm: Avoid unclocked GMU register access in
6xx gpu_busy"): msm_devfreq_init() does call devfreq_suspend_device(), but
unlike msm_devfreq_suspend(), it doesn't set the df->suspended flag
accordingly. This means the df->suspended flag does not match the actual
devfreq state after initialization and msm_devfreq_get_dev_status() will
end up accessing GMU registers, causing the crash.

Fix this by setting df->suspended correctly during initialization.

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 Restructured Text 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.
