[PATCH] driver core: Emit reason for pending deferred probe

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Ending a boot log with

	platform 3f202000.mmc: deferred probe pending

is already a nice hint about the problem. Sometimes there is a more
detailed error indicator available, add that to the output.

Hello,

it's only compile tested, I created that patch while remote debugging an
issue by an irc user who provided the kernel log of a hung boot ending
in such output.

Best regards
Uwe
