Revert "driver core: Add deferred_probe attribute to devices in sysfs"
This reverts commit 6751667a29d6fd64afb9ce30567ad616b68ed789. Rob Herring objected to it, and a replacement for it will be added using debugfs in the future.

-What: /sys/devices/.../deferred_probe
-Date: August 2016
-Contact: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk>
-Description:
- The /sys/devices/.../deferred_probe attribute is
- present for all devices. If a driver detects during
- probing a device that a related device is not yet
- ready, it may defer probing of the first device. The
- kernel will retry probing the first device after any
- other device is successfully probed. This attribute
- reads as 1 if probing of this device is currently
- deferred, or 0 otherwise.
