Log:
   - In device_probe_child(9) check the return value of device_set_driver(9)
     when actually setting a driver as especially ENOMEM is fatal in these
     cases.
   - Annotate other calls to device_set_devclass(9) and device_set_driver(9)
     without the return value being checked and that are okay to fail.

Hmm, I've always thought that new-bus overused M_NOWAIT. There are a few places where M_NOWAIT might be appropriate (e.g. from pccbb's interrupt routine when a cardbus card is inserted), but the boot time probe can certainly use M_WAITOK instead. Even the pccbb case could use M_WAITOK if it were simply deferred to a taskqueue (which it probably should be anyway, probing and attaching a driver to a new card is far too expensive to do directly from an interrupt handler).
