There's currently no way to use driver_async_probe kernel cmdline param to enable default async probe for all drivers. So, add support for "*" to match with all driver names. When "*" is used, all other drivers listed in driver_async_probe are drivers that will NOT match the "*". For example: * driver_async_probe=drvA,drvB,drvC drvA, drvB and drvC do asynchronous probing. * driver_async_probe=* All drivers do asynchronous probing except those that have set PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS flag. * driver_async_probe=*,drvA,drvB,drvC All drivers do asynchronous probing except drvA, drvB, drvC and those that have set PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS flag.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
