Anyway, those are all fairly standard reasons for where deferred probe triggers, and since I do like deferred probe for it's simplicity and reliability I'd rather not try to work around it if boot time is all that people are concerned about.
It's neither simple nor reliable. It's non deterministic brutforcing while making it almost impossible to identify real errors. In my humble opinion the worst way to solve something. I'm pretty sure if I would have suggest such a solution, the maintainer crowd would have eaten me without cooking. Regards, Alexander Holler
