platform_driver_probe() is just a wrapper around platform_driver_register() -
the difference between the two is that _probe() will temporarily set the
probe method in the passed driver structure, call platform_driver_register(),
and then NULL the probe method out.

So, merely changing platform_driver_register() for platform_driver_probe()
won't solve the deadlock.

I'm not sure what's caused this regression, as I can't see any DSS changes,
nor core driver model changes which would account for this.  Has something
changed in hwmod to cause this?

It is _very_ important that we discover what has caused this regression
and prevent it going upstream until the problem is resolved.  Until we
know that, I suggest that _no_ OMAP changes go upstream during this
merge window until we understand what's caused this.
