think about the case that devices already discovered before module init.
without the change here we'll register both the platform devices and driver
but with the change here we'll only register the platform devices without
the related driver to probe them.

Try to register the driver and notifier unconditionally will solve the issue.
It'll probe the device and register the PMU if later device is added by
the bus notifier.

Thanks.
