From: Thierry Reding treding@nvidia.com
With MODALIAS information being properly exported to userspace helpers, there is no need to explicitly request modules. Upon registration of new codec devices, userspace will know which kernel module to load.
This removes request_module() from the HDA controller's ->probe() path. Recursively loading a module this way causes a deadlock in the driver core because the HDA controller is locked as part of its own probe but probing its children (the HDA codec devices) will attempt to lock them again. In the past this has been worked around by splitting the probe into synchronous and asynchronous parts, where the request_module() is executed from a workqueue to avoid the deadlock.
Since all the information necessary to let userspace load the proper kernel modules is now exported, there is no need for such workarounds anymore.
