The -EPROBE_DEFER error path in serial_base_device_init() is a bit
awkward. Before the call to device_initialize(dev) then we need to
manually release all the device resources. And after the call then we
need to call put_device() to release the resources. Doing either one
wrong will result in a leak or a use after free.
So let's wait to return -EPROBE_DEFER until after the call to
device_initialize(dev) so that way callers do not have to handle
-EPROBE_DEFER as a special case. Now callers can just use put_device()
for clean up.
The second issue with the -EPROBE_DEFER path is that deferring is not
supposed to be a fatal error, but instead it's normal part of the
init process and the kernel recovers from it automatically. That means
we should not print an error message but just a debug message on this
path.
