I see this as well with btusb driver in resume if port was reset.

drivers/base/dd.c really_probe() returns -EPROBE_DEFER if it's called before
device_unblock_probing() is called.

drivers/base/power/main/dpm_complete() will unlock probing after it has
finished resuming all devices and called all the pm_ops .complete callbacks.

The usb_device_pm_ops .complete callback will try to rebind the interface driver
if device was reset at resume, leading to them -EPROBE_DEFER.

I guess we either need to rework a few things, or remove that warning.
