Yeah, I wanted to check where exactly did we mark the nodes online, and for the few architectures I checked it happens in setup_arch(), which is called very early in start_kernel(), while driver_init() gets called through arch_call_rest_init(), which happens at the end of the function. I am not sure whether we want to remark that somehow in the changelog, so it is crystal clear that by the time the node_dev_init() gets called, we already set the nodes online. Anyway, just saying, but is fine as is. -- Oscar Salvador SUSE Labs
