One of my goals was to keep things as close to how they are in Linux
as possible. That's how that file is called there, so you might have
to take it with Mark Brown if you want to change that.

Just to clarify, deferred probe was already a part of Barebox for a
while, the patches in this series only change the fact that Barebox
core now has a chance to "give up" on deferred device and declare it
as non-existent.

As for devm_* functions, not far at all. I don't think it would be
difficult to port and I've been meaning to do that for a while, just
never had an opportunity to do it so far.
