I'd prefer to skip the rescan if the pwrctrl device is created and let the
pci_pwrctrl_device_set_ready() initiate rescan once the device is powered on.
This way, we could avoid scanning for the device twice.

I did move the devlink handling out of bus notifier callback with commit,
b458ff7e8176 ("PCI/pwrctl: Ensure that pwrctl drivers are probed before PCI
client drivers").
The bus notifier is only used to set 'of_node_reused' flag to indicate that the
corresponding DT node is already used.
