In Chicago right now -- feedback was it seems the that generally
splitting up probe from init might be good in the end, if we do this
we won't need a work around for drivers that wait until our
grandmothers die on probe, but we certainly will then be penalizing
drivers who's init does take over 30 seconds. I'm waiting to see an
alternative version of the solution provided as an example on the
other thread, maybe it will fix my keyboard issue :)
