This patch removes the PCI_MULTITHREAD_PROBE option that had already 
been marked as broken.

help
Say Y here if you want the PCI core to spawn a new thread for
every PCI device that is probed. This can cause a huge
speedup in boot times on multiprocessor machines, and even a
smaller speedup on single processor machines.
But it can also cause lots of bad things to happen. A number
of PCI drivers cannot properly handle running in this way,
some will just not work properly at all, while others might
decide to blow up power supplies with a huge load all at once,
so use this option at your own risk.
It is very unwise to use this option if you are not using a
boot process that can handle devices being created in any
order. A program that can create persistent block and network
device names (like udev) is a good idea if you wish to use
this option.
Again, use this option at your own risk, you have been warned!
When in doubt, say N.
