Hi Alexander,
Thanks for looking at this. It is a difficult problem. I've made
comments below, but first I've got some general comments...
First, I'm going to be very cautious about this. It is a complicated
piece of code making the device initialization process a lot more
complicated than it already is. I'm the first one to admit that deferred
probe handles the problem in quite a naive manner, but it is simple,
correct (when drivers support deferred probe) and easy to audit. This
series digs deep into the registration order of *both* devices and
drivers which gives me the heebee jeebees.
Personally, I think the parts of this patch that manipulate the device registration
order is entirely the wrong way to handle it. If anything, I would say
continue to register the devices, even if the dependencies are unmet.
Instead, I would focus on the driver core (drivers/base) to catch
device probe attempts when a known dependency is not met, remember it,
and perform the probe after the other driver shows up. That is also
going to be a complicated bit of code, but it works for every kind of
device, not just platform_devices, and has far less impact on the
platform setup code.
BTW, this has to be able to work at the level of struct device instead
of struct platform_device. There are far more kinds of devices than just
platform_device, and they all have the same problem.
Also, may I suggest that the more pieces that you can break this series
up into, the greater chance you'll have of getting a smaller subset
merged earlier if it can be proven to be useful on its own.

What happens when of_init_build_order() fails? Does the whole system

Is it possible for this to be dynamic? DT platforms range from small to
very very large.

I would suggest splitting the core graph support into a separate patch
to keep things smaller and to keep the behaviour changes separate from
the support function additions.

Copying isn't a good idea. The function will need to be made accessible
to other files in the drivers/of directory.

Can the sort be performed incrementally? The DT is a dynamic structure
on some platforms. Search for OF_RECONFIG_. There is work in progress to
add overlay support to the device tree so that batches of new nodes can
be added to the tree after userspace has started. The dependency code
will need to handle that situation gracefully.

If you wrap of_init_print_order with a #ifdef DEBUG/#else/#endif, then
you don't need to comment out the call to of_init_print_order().

I don't like that of_init_create_devices() has a completely different
calling convention from of_platform_populate(). of_platform_populate()
is passed a match table for devices that are to act as buses (which
means register the children also). This function is passed a blacklist
instead which is a completely different semantic.
That means it cannot be used by device drivers that register their own
children and it has to make a lot of assumptions about what should and
should not be registered as platform_devices.
How does the dependency code decide which devices can be
platform_devices? It's not clear to me from what I've read so far.

I could use some help understanding what is being done here. It looks
like it is going through and only registering devices that have a
dependency parent already created, or don't have a parent at all. Am I
correct?
It looks like this patch alone will break the kernel because it depends
also on the functionality in patch 5. The patches would need to be
reordered to handle that situation.

This change has been proposed many times in several forms. I've pushed
back hard against it because it is absolutely normal for multiple
struct devices to reference the same device tree node.
There is a patch that Pawel has submitted which sets a flag in the
of_node if the of_platform_populate() path has been used to create a
struct device. It's a little crude, but it does handle the problem of
multiple passes through of_platform_populate(). I expect it will show up
in mainline in v3.16
