[PATCHv3 2/4] drivers/base: utilize device tree info to shutdown devices

Thank you Andy for the heads up. I might need to rebase my work
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180629182541.6735-1-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com)
based on this change. But, it is possible it is going to be harder to
parallelize based on device tree. I will need to think about it.
