Since it's not currently safe to take device_lock() in the IOMMU probe
path, that can race against really_probe() setting dev->driver before
attempting to bind. The race itself isn't so bad, since we're only
concerned with dereferencing dev->driver itself anyway, but sadly my
attempt to implement the check with minimal churn leads to a kind of
Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) issue, where dev->driver becomes
valid after to_pci_driver(NULL) is already computed, and thus the check
fails to work as intended.
Will and I both hit this with the platform bus, but the pattern here is
the same, so fix it for correctness too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
