Can please you expand on why this is a problem here in the commit
message?

The aux devices appear to be tore down correctly in the probe error
paths so how exactly does that lead to deferred_probe_initcall() being
stuck? This sounds like we may have a problem elsewhere which this patch
is papering over.

Also where does the probe deferral come from in your case?
pdr_handle_alloc()?

If this is a correct fix, I'd also expect there to be a Fixes and
CC-stable tag.
