[PATCH v2 01/22] platform: delay device-driver matches until late_initcall

[Tomeu Vizoso]

Delay matches of platform devices until late_initcall, when we are sure
that all built-in drivers have been registered already.  This is needed
to prevent deferred probes because of some drivers not having registered
yet.

The reason why only platform devices are delayed is that some other
devices are expected to be probed earlier than late_initcall, for
example, the system PNP driver needs to probe its devices in
fs_initcall.
