Isaac J. Manjarres a4c5cc3497 driver core: Don't probe devices after bus_type.match() probe deferral commit `25e9fbf0fd` upstream. Both __device_attach_driver() and __driver_attach() check the return code of the bus_type.match() function to see if the device needs to be added to the deferred probe list. After adding the device to the list, the logic attempts to bind the device to the driver anyway, as if the device had matched with the driver, which is not correct. If __device_attach_driver() detects that the device in question is not ready to match with a driver on the bus, then it doesn't make sense for the device to attempt to bind with the current driver or continue attempting to match with any of the other drivers on the bus. So, update the logic in __device_attach_driver() to reflect this. If __driver_attach() detects that a driver tried to match with a device that is not ready to match yet, then the driver should not attempt to bind with the device. However, the driver can still attempt to match and bind with other devices on the bus, as drivers can be bound to multiple devices. So, update the logic in __driver_attach() to reflect this.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
