The usecase would be an i3cdev userspace driver for a device with 
broken hotjoin support.
The device requires FW loading(userspace framework) before it will respond 
to DAA, and is thus not registered during initial bus probe.
I guess a similiar problem would apply if hot-join is bus disabled 
via sysfs, and resume hook DDA runs before i3c devices are powered up properly.

A bit of a niche usecase, I know.
I found it to be usable though, but perhaps this is better placed in 
debugfs in case its too much of an eyesore for the stable ABI.
