No, don't play silly link order games. We are never going to get a link
order that avoids deferred probes, faffing about changing things to try
to make one just leads to lots of noise. If you want to avoid noise
from deferred probe then work on something that communicates
dependencies to the driver core so we don't have to brute force things,
Raphael has some ideas there he's been looking at.
