Subject: [PATCH v1] driver core: Fix suspend/resume order issue with deferred probe

Under the following conditions:
- driver A is built in and can probe device-A
- driver B is a module and can probe device-B
- device-A is supplier of device-B

Without this patch:
1. device-A is added.
2. device-B is added.
3. dpm_list is now [device-A, device-B].
4. driver-A defers probe of device-A.
5. deferred probe of device-A is reattempted
6. device-A is moved to end of dpm_list.
6. dpm_list is now [device-B, device-A].
7. driver-B is loaded and probes device-B.
8. dpm_list stays as [device-B, device-A].

Suspend (which goes in the reverse order of dpm_list) fails because
device-A (supplier) is suspended before device-B (consumer).

With this patch:
1. device-A is added.
2. device-B is added.
3. dpm_list is now [device-A, device-B].
4. driver-A defers probe of device-A.
5. deferred probe of device-A is reattempted later.
6. dpm_list is now [device-B, device-A].
7. driver-B is loaded and probes device-B.
8. dpm_list is now [device-A, device-B].

Suspend works because device-B (consumer) is suspended before device-A
(supplier).
