Now that fw_devlink=on by default and fw_devlink supports interrupt
properties, the execution will never get to the point where
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() is called before the supplier has
probed successfully or before deferred probe timeout has expired.

So, delete the call and replace it with -ENODEV.

FTR, this issue is now present in v6.0-rc1.
I haven't tried your newest series yet.
