Some devices take a long time when initializing, and not all drivers are suited to initialize their devices when they are open. For example, input drivers need to interrogate their devices in order to publish device's capabilities before userspace will open them. When such drivers are compiled into kernel they may stall entire kernel initialization. This change allows drivers request for their probe functions to be called asynchronously during driver and device registration (manual binding is still synchronous). Because async_schedule is used to perform asynchronous calls module loading will still wait for the probing to complete. Note that the end goal is to make the probing asynchronous by default, so annotating drivers with PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS is a temporary measure that allows us to speed up boot process while we validating and fixing the rest of the drivers and preparing userspace. This change is based on earlier patch by "Luis R.
