[PATCH v5 1/6] driver core: Fix driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic

driver_deferred_probe_check_state() has some uninituitive behavior.

* From boot to late_initcall, it returns -EPROBE_DEFER

* From late_initcall to the deferred_probe_timeout (if set)
  it returns -ENODEV

* If the deferred_probe_timeout it set, after it fires, it
  returns -ETIMEDOUT

This is a bit confusing, as its useful to have the function
return -EPROBE_DEFER while the timeout is still running. This
behavior has resulted in the somwhat duplicative
driver_deferred_probe_check_state_continue() function being
added.

Thus this patch tries to improve the logic, so that it behaves
as such:

* If late_initcall has passed, and modules are not enabled
  it returns -ENODEV

* If modules are enabled and deferred_probe_timeout is set,
  it returns -EPROBE_DEFER until the timeout, afterwhich it
  returns -ETIMEDOUT.

* In all other cases, it returns -EPROBE_DEFER

This will make the deferred_probe_timeout value much more
functional, and will allow us to consolidate the
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() and
driver_deferred_probe_check_state_continue() logic in a later
patch.

v4:
* Simplified logic suggested by Andy Shevchenko
* Clarified commit message to focus on logic change
v5:
* Cleanup comment wording as suggested by Rafael
* Tweaked the logic to use Saravana's suggested conditionals
