Andi and Andy,

You both commented on earlier versions.  Do you think this is a good
change set?

I've +CC a few more based on a quick look at the original
dev_err_probe() series. Whilst this isn't adding a bunch of new stuff
around deferred probing (like that series did), maybe some of those
reviewers will give opinions here?
