This change makes it so that we call the asynchronous probe routines on a
CPU local to the device node. By doing this we should be able to improve
our initialization time significantly as we can avoid having to access the
device from a remote node which may introduce higher latency.
This is nice in theory, but what kind of real numbers does this show?
There's a lot of added complexity here, and what is the benifit?

Benchmarks or bootcharts that we can see would be great to have, thanks.
