Subject: [PATCH] bus: fsl_mc: Fix driver_managed_dma check

Since it's not currently safe to take device_lock() in the IOMMU probe
path, that can race against really_probe() setting dev->driver before
attempting to bind. The race itself isn't so bad, since we're only
concerned with dereferencing dev->driver itself anyway, but sadly my
attempt to implement the check with minimal churn leads to a kind of
TOCTOU issue, where dev->driver becomes valid after to_fsl_mc_driver(NULL)
is already computed, and thus the check fails to work as intended.

Will and I both hit this with the platform bus, but the pattern here is
the same, so fix it for correctness too.
