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).
