From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx> cxgb4 probe can take up to over 1 minute when the firmware is is written and installed on the device, even after this the device driver still does some device probing and can take quite a bit. This driver needs fixing but right now it simply wont' work on some systems. Use the new module_long_probe_init() to annotate this driver's probe is broken and require some love, but makes the driver operational until that is fixed.
