You need to increase info.probe_count here and set
amd_chipset.probe_count with it, because it's decreased during every
host controller stop routine.

The original design target is to probe the chipset only once, so other
host controllers will not probe the chipset again. This patch allows
multiple threads to probe the chipset at the same time, and only one
thread is doing the valid work. It may add unnecessary cost.
