    dm: core: Mark device as active before calling its probe() method · 02eeb1bb

    At present the device is not active when the probe() method is called. But
    some probe() methods want to set up the device and this can involve
    accessing it through normal methods. For example a PCI bus may wish to
    set up its PCI parameters using calls to pci_hose_write_config_dword() and
    similar.
    
    At present this does not work because every such call within the probe()
    method sees that the device is not active and attempts to probe it.
    
    Already we mark the device as probed before calling the uclass post_probe()
    method. This is a subtle change but I believe the new approach is better.
    Since the scope of the change is only the probe() method and all its callees
    it should still be within the control of the board author.
