Yeah this is probe path.

The GPU node will depend on the AON node, which will be the sole
provider for the 'gpu-power' sequencer (based on the discussion in patch
1).

Therefore, if the AON/pwrseq driver has already completed its probe, and
devm_pwrseq_get() in the GPU driver subsequently returns -EPROBE_DEFER
(because pwrseq_get found 'no match' on the bus for 'gpu-power'), the
interpretation is that the AON driver did not register this optional
sequencer. Since AON is the only anticipated source, it implies the
sequencer won't become available later from its designated provider.
This specific scenario is when we intend to fall back to manual power
management, which pvr driver is capable of, it just doesn't work for the
TH1520 SoC, as it has a custom requirements implemented by the pwrseq
driver.
