The devices_kset list should already be in the right order for shutting
stuff down--i.e., parents and suppliers should be shutdown later as the
device_shutdown loop goes through the devices.
With async shutdown this loop still goes the devices_kset list in the same
order it did before the patch, so my expectation was that any parents/suppliers
would come later in the loop than any children/siblings, and it would update
shutdown_after as it went to ensure that each device ended up with the cookie
of the last child/consumer that it needed to wait for.
However, I missed that the devices_kset list isn't always reordered when a
devlink is added and a consumer isn't dependent on the supplier (see
device_is_dependent()). I have a patch would address that, and add a sanity
check in case any devices get in the list in the wrong order somehow:

I'll submit this shortly if nobody responds with any issues with this.
Thank you!
