[PATCH] dt: platform driver: Fill the resources before probe and defer if needed

The goal of this patch is to allow drivers to be probed even if at the time of
the DT parsing some of their ressources are not available yet.

In the current situation, the resource of a platform device are filled from the
DT at the time the device is created (of_device_alloc()). The drawbackof this
is that a device sitting close to the top of the DT (ahb for example) but
depending on ressources that are initialized later (IRQ domain dynamically
created for example)  will fail to probe because the ressources don't exist
at this time.

This patch fills the resource structure only before the device is probed and
will defer the probe if the resource are not available yet.
