One change I made in addition is I replaced the use of "bool X:1" to define
the bitfield to a "u8 X:1" setup in order to resolve some checkpatch
warnings.
Please use "bool X:1" instead of "u8 X:1". I think it was a bad idea to make
checkpatch complain about "bool X:1" since "bool X:1" should only be avoided
in structures for which alignment must be architecture-independent. For struct
device it is fine if member alignment differs per architecture. Additionally,
changing "bool X:1" into "u8 X:1" will reduce performance on architectures that
cannot do byte addressing.

This patch mixes functional changes with whitespace changes. Please move the
whitespace changes into a separate patch such that this patch becomes easier
to read.

The new async_probe field can be changed from multiple threads. Concurrent
changes of a bitfield are only safe if these are serialized in some way.
Please document the locking requirements for the async_probe bitfield in
device.h.

Thanks,

Bart.
