Prior to 6.2, the driver would do it's own async_schedule, and that
async probe function would flush the first scan work.
wait_for_device_probe() was then forced to wait for the scan_work to
complete, which brings up the root device.

We're not flushing the scan_work anymore from our probe, so this should
fix it for 6.2:
