Whether the platform driver actually probed.

It is the correct platform device, however it might not have finished
probing (this function is called from the USB driver). It's an unlikely
case, but it might happen, especially if the bootloader left the hub
regulator enabled (otherwise it would only be enabled by the platform
driver).
If device_is_bound() is a no-go (as it seems) the function could check
the drvdata instead.

The probe() of the platform device.

Alan asked me to add them. It's not strictly needed. I'm fine with removing
them as long as there is no strong opposition to that :)

Yes, the links aren't critical for the functioning of the driver.
