That means that you are kicking the majority devices (for now) into
deferral path. I do not think this is optimal.
That's not necessary, we'd only need to kick those into the deferral path that
have PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS, no?
Yes, it may limit the fallout, but as I explained in my other email
there seem to be a serious disconnect on what synchronous and
asynchronous probing mean.

I wonder, don't we get issues with phylib in other cases? Don't we ever
have a module resulting in creating a phy device triggering loading
another module on the same thread? Won't that result in a warning also?

Thanks.
