Hi Sumit,

The error print is in driver_register().

This is kind of what happens:
scmi_driver_init()
scmi_probe()
    scmi_optee_link_supplier()
        scmi_optee_init()
            driver_register() <--- pr_err() if tee_bus_type is not
initialized
tee_init() <--- tee_bus_type gets initialized here

The scmi_optee_link_supplier() will always return -EPROBE_DEFER the
first time because scmi_optee_private is initialized in
scmi_optee_service_probe, which is only called after the driver is
registered in scmi_optee_init. Right now the driver_register fails
because tee_bus_type is not initialized which is printing the unwanted
error print. Another side effect of this is that
scmi_optee_link_supplier() will return -EPROBE_DEFER a second time, and
scmi_probe will be successful the third time instead of the second
time.
