Subject: [patch 5/3] fastboot: sync the async execution before late_initcall
 and move level 6s (sync) first

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@...ux.intel.com>
Subject: [PATCH] fastboot: sync the async execution before late_initcall and move level 6s (sync) first

Rene Herman points out several cases where it's basically needed to have all
level 6/6a/6s calls done before the level 7 (late_initcall) code runs. This patch
adds a sync point in the transition from the 6's to the 7's.

Second, this patch makes sure that level 6s (sync) happens before the async code starts,
and puts a user in driver/pci in this category that needs to happen before device init.
