[PATCH] driver core: flush async calls before testing driver removal

[Vladimir Zapolskiy <vz@mleia.com>]

If CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE option is enabled a number of false
positives are reported for ATA controller drivers, because ATA port
probes are done asynchronously, and the same problem may also touch
other asynchronously probed drivers.

To reduce the rate of false reports on boot call async_synchronize_full()
before attempting to remove a driver, the same is done in delete_module()
syscall for all possible drivers and in __device_release_driver() function
for asynchronously probed drivers.

Fixes: bea5b158ff0d ("driver core: add test of driver remove calls during probe")
