[PATCH v1 1/2] driver core: Add probe_no_timeout flag for drivers

[Saravana Kannan]

This flag only needs to be set for drivers of devices that meet all the
following conditions:
- Need to probe successfully before userspace init in started
- Have optional suppliers
- Can't wait for deferred_probe_timeout to expire

fw_devlink=on uses this info, as needed, to ignore dependencies on supplier
devices that have not been added or supplier devices that don't have any
drivers.  It's still up to the driver to decide which of the missing
suppliers are optional or not.

Fixes: 71066545b48e ("driver core: Set fw_devlink.strict=1 by default")
