[PATCH 13/13] driver-core: probe dependencies before probing

[Tomeu Vizoso]

Before actually probing a device, find out what dependencies it has and
do our best to ensure that they are available at this point.

This is accomplished by finding out what platform devices need to be
probed so the dependencies are available.

If any dependencies are still unavailable after that (most probably a
missing driver or an error in the HW description from the firmware), we
print a nice error message so that people don't have to add a zillion of
printks to find out why a device asked for its probe to be deferred.

Dependencies are discovered with the help of the subsystems that already
implement the firmware bindings that specify the naming scheme of
properties that point to other nodes, via class.get_deps().

Currently the dependencies list is discarded but it could be stored for
later usage.
