spi: of: do explicitly request modules for of-registered devices
Trying to register an SPI device asynchronously (via async_schedule() call) results in an ugly complaint from request_module() warning about potential deadlock (because request_module tries to wait for async works to complete, the caller is also an async work in this case). While we could try to switch to using request_module_nowait(), other buses, as well as SPI itself when not using device tree, do not try to load modules explicitly, but rather rely on the standard infrastructure (such as udev) to execute module loading. There is no reason why SPI OF-described devices should be treated differently. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
