[PATCH v3] PM / sleep: prohibit devices probing during suspend/hibernation

[Grygorii Strashko]

It is unsafe [1] if probing of devices will happen during suspend or
hibernation and system behavior will be unpredictable in this case.
So, let's prohibit device's probing in dpm_prepare() and defer their
probing instead. The normal behavior will be restored in
dpm_complete().

This patch introduces new DD core APIs:
 device_block_probing()
   It will disable probing of devices and defer their probes instead.
 device_unblock_probing()
   It will restore normal behavior and trigger re-probing of deferred
   devices.

Changes in v3:
- rename device_defer_all_probes_enable/disable() to 
  device_block/unblock_probing()

Changes in v2:
- DD core API device_defer_all_probes(bool enable) split on two
  void device_defer_all_probes_enable(void);
  void device_defer_all_probes_disable(void);
- more comments added
