No. For me the problem is only seen if I try to boot from the second usb
interface with the orangepi-pc qemu emulation, but not when I try to boot
from the first usb interface. That alone makes it unlikely to be an
EPROBE_DEFER related problem.

Some debugging with your code in the tree:

In other words, there is some offset translation missing with your patch,
causing -EINVAL returns.
