I'm a bit concerned about this need too as the trend is towards
initializing things later than earlier. The drivers/Makefile order
and deferred probe should be already enough?

Specifically could you decribe the cases where this issue happens?
Also check if one of your client drivers has some early initcall
that's no longer needed.
