4 Description:
5                 The /sys/devices/.../deferred_probe attribute is
6                 present for all devices.  If a driver detects during
7                 probing a device that a related device is not yet
8                 ready, it may defer probing of the first device.  The
9                 kernel will retry probing the first device after any
10                 other device is successfully probed.  This attribute
11                 reads as 1 if probing of this device is currently
12                 deferred, or 0 otherwise.
