You are right, but I did this intentionally. The reason for having
this check, was that I didn't want the new API to put the limit on
handling deferred probe.

I happy the above check, if you think it's better!?

Currently, I haven't seen any place where it doesn't make sense.

Additionally if such place is found, we may either just ignore it and
let the caller of the API worry about the returned error or invoke the
genpd/acpi API immediately instead.
