Linus Torvalds 8c2bf4a2e5 Driver core fixes for 7.1-rc1
- Prevent a device from being probed before device_add() has finished
   initializing it; gate probe with a "ready_to_probe" device flag to
   avoid races with concurrent driver_register() calls
 
 - Fix a kernel-doc warning for DEV_FLAG_COUNT introduced by the above
 
 - Return -ENOTCONN from software_node_get_reference_args() when a
   referenced software node is known but not yet registered, allowing
   callers to defer probe
 
 - In sysfs_group_attrs_change_owner(), also check is_visible_const();
   missed when the const variant was introduced
