Tomeu Vizoso 656b8035b0 ARM: 8524/1: driver cohandle -EPROBE_DEFER from bus_type.match()
Allow implementations of the match() callback in struct bus_type to
return errors and if it's -EPROBE_DEFER then queue the device for
deferred probing.

This is useful to buses such as AMBA in which devices are registered
before their matching information can be retrieved from the HW
(typically because a clock driver hasn't probed yet).

[changed if-else code structure, adjusted documentation to match the code,
extended comments]

Erik Hovland 2a7ff1feda [PATCH] changes device to driver in porting.txt
The document porting.txt in Documentation/driver-model says:
When a device is successfully bound to a device

I think it should say:
When a device is successfully bound to a driver

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
