I think Enric was clear that the driver does probe correctly
(meaning that he has the fix in his tree). It is everything else
that breaks, because none of the drivers on the platform are
equipped to defer their own probing.

I think we need to change this works right now, meaning that we can't
blindly change the behaviour of *built-in* drivers. I'll see if I can
come up with something quickly, but I'll otherwise take Enric patch.
