[driver-core PATCH v5 5/9] driver core: Establish clear order of operations for deferred probe and remove

From: Alexander Duyck
Date: Mon Nov 05 2018 - 16:12:10 EST


This patch adds an additional bit to the device struct named async_probe.
This additional bit allows us to guarantee ordering between probe and
remove operations.

This allows us to guarantee that if we execute a remove operation or a
driver load attempt on a given interface it will not attempt to update the
driver member asynchronously following the earlier operation. Previously
this guarantee was not present and could result in us attempting to remove
a driver from an interface only to have it show up later when it is
asynchronously loaded.

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.
