Grant Likely fbc35b45f9 Add documentation on meaning of -EPROBE_DEFER
Add a bit of documentation on what it means when a driver .probe() hook
returns the -EPROBE_DEFER error code, including the limitation that
-EPROBE_DEFER should be returned as early as possible, before the driver
starts to register child devices.

Also: minor markup fixes in the same file

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
