When a gpiochip gets added by loading a module, then another driver may
be waiting for that gpiochip to load on the deferred-probe list.
If the deferred-probe for the consumer of gpiochip then triggers between
the gpiodev_add_to_list_unlocked() calls which makes gpio_device_find()
see the chip and the gpiochip_setup_dev() later then gpio_device_find()
does a kobject_get() on an uninitialized kobject since the kobject is
initialized by gpiochip_setup_dev() calling device_initialize():
arizona spi-10WM5102:00: cannot find GPIO chip arizona, deferring
arizona spi-10WM5102:00: cannot find GPIO chip arizona, deferring
------------[ cut here ]------------
kobject: 'gpiochip5' (00000000241466f2): is not initialized, yet kobject_get() is being called.
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 42 at lib/kobject.c:640 kobject_get+0x43/0x70
Call Trace:

Not only is the device not initialized yet, but when the gpio-device is
added to the list things like the irqchip also have not been initialized
yet.
So gpio_device_find() should really ignore the gpio-device until
gpiochip_add_data_with_key() is fully done. Add a device_is_registered()
check to gpio_device_find() to ignore gpio-devices on the list which are
not yet fully initialized.

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.
