Looks like it is caused by ...

    mfd: twl-core: Collect global variables behind one private structure (global)
    
    Gather the global variables under a single structure and allocate it with
    devm_kzalloc(). It is easier to see them and if in the future we try to add
    support for multiple instance of twl in the system it is going to be much
    simpler.

Here is a fix. I will send out for review later ...

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP2+: Fix kernel panic on boot

Commit 8a6aaa3 (mfd: twl-core: Collect global variables behind one
private structure (global)) removed the variable "inuse" that is used
to determine if the device has been initialised and now use the
twl_priv structure instead. This is causing the kernel to panic on all
OMAP2+ devices, because we try to access the twl_priv->ready member
before checking if twl_priv is initialised. Fix this and move this test
to the beginning of the twl_i2c_read/write function because
twl_get_last_module() also uses the twl_priv structure.
