I was thinking about the case where the dwc3-qcom probe is initially deferred,
then the deferred probe starts shortly after (asynchronously) and now the
dwc3-qcom driver does its check. Probably it's not very likely to happen ...

I like the simplicity of it, no need for new APIs.

The components based approach would be slightly safer, but in practice I
think this should be good enough.
