          and ARM64 use it.
 
+config FW_DEVLINK_SYNC_STATE_TIMEOUT
+       bool "sync_state() behavior defaults to timeout instead of strict"
+       help
+         This is build time equivalent of adding kernel command line parameter
+         "fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout". Give up waiting on consumers and
+         call sync_state() on any devices that haven't yet received their
+         sync_state() calls after deferred_probe_timeout has expired or by
+         late_initcall() if !CONFIG_MODULES. You should almost always want to
+         select N here unless you have already successfully tested with the
+         command line option on every system/board your kernel is expected to
+         work on.
