TQ-Systems' TQMa8Mx module (SoM) uses a pcf85063 as RTC. The default output
is 32768Hz. This is to provide the i.MX8M CKIL clock. Once the RTC driver
is probed, the clock is disabled and all i.MX8M functionality depending on
the 32 KHz clock will halt. In our case the whole system halts and a power
cycle is required.
Referencing the pcf85063 directly results in a deadlock. The kernel
will see, that i.MX8M system clock needs the RTC clock and do probe
deferral. But the i.MX8M I2C module never becomes usable without the
i.MX8M CKIL clock and thus the RTC's clock will not be probed. So
from the kernel's perspective this is a chicken-and-egg problem.
Technically everything is fine by not touching anything, since
the RTC clock correctly enables the clock on reset (i.e. on
battery backup power loss).
A workaround for this issue is describing the square wave pin
as fixed-clock, which is registered early and basically how
this pin is used on the i.MX8M.
This addresses the exact same issue as in commit

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.
