[PATCH v2] driver: core: Allow subsystems to continue deferring probe

2019-06-13 Thread Thierry Reding
From: Thierry Reding Some subsystems, such as pinctrl, allow continuing to defer probe indefinitely. This is useful for devices that depend on resources provided by devices that are only probed after the init stage. One example of this can be seen on Tegra, where the DPAUX hardware contains pinm
