We use a hack to defer probe when firmware was not pre-loaded or found on disk. This helps in case users forgot to include firmware in initramfs, the driver will most likely get another shot at probing after real root is mounted. This is not for what EPROBE_DEFER is supposed to be used, and when FW is completely missing every time new device is probed NFP will reprobe spamming kernel logs. Remove this hack, users will now have to make sure the right firmware image is present in initramfs if nfp.ko is placed there or built in.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
