This information is lost when we merge patches, as such I would like
such design decisions to be described in the commit message itself.

...why can't this be done in rpmhpd_probe()?

In particular with the recent patches from John Stultz to allow rpmhpd
to be built as a module I don't think there's any guarantees that
rpmh_probe() will have succeeded before rpmhpd_init_warming_device()
executes.
