One of the side effects of deferred probe is that some drivers which used to be probed before initcalls completed are now happening slightly later. This causes two problems. - If a console driver gets deferred, then it may not be ready when userspace starts. For example, if a uart depends on pinctrl, then the uart will get deferred and /dev/console will not be available - __init sections will be discarded before built-in drivers are probed. Strictly speaking, __init functions should not be called in a drivers __probe path, but there are a lot of drivers (console stuff again) that do anyway. In the past it was perfectly safe to do so because all built-in drivers got probed before the end of initcalls. This patch fixes the problem by forcing the first pass of the deferred list to complete at late_initcall time. This is late enough to catch the drivers that are known to have the above issues.
