OK idling of unclaimed devices should not happen for deferred probe,
it should only happen when there's no driver and no probing happening.

I think this is still needed from PM point of view as otherwise we
don't idle any devices that don't have a driver available. Or am I
missing something?
To me it seems the bug is relying on the BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER is
not set in the deferred probe case.
