PCI core code in the pci_call_probe() has a path that doesn't hold
device_lock. It happens because the ->probe() is called through the
workqueue mechanism.
349 static int pci_call_probe(struct pci_driver *drv, struct pci_dev *dev,
350 const struct pci_device_id *id)
351 {
352
....
377 if (cpu < nr_cpu_ids)
378 error = work_on_cpu(cpu, local_pci_probe, &ddi);
Luckily enough, the core still ensures that only single flow is executed,
so it safe to remove the assert checks that anyway were added for annotations
purposes.
