Add deferred bus functionality in order to enforce probing flow execution
order. Driver mlx-platform activates platform driver i2c-mux-reg, which
creates busses infrastructure, after that it activates mlxreg-hotplug
driver, which uses these busses, for connecting devices. The possible
miss-ordering can happened, for example in case the probing routine of
mlxreg-hotplug is already started execution, while i2c-mux-reg probing
routine is not completed yet. In such situation the first one could
attempt to connect device to adapter number, which is not created yet.
And as a result this connection will fail. In order to ensure the order of
probing execution on mlxreg-hotplug probe routine will be deferred until
all the busses is not created by  probe routine of i2c-mux-reg.
In order to ensure the flow order, mlx-platform driver passes the highest
bus number to the mlxreg-hotplug platform data, which in their turn could
wait in the deferred state, until all the necessary buses topology is not
exist.
