Revert "driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()"
This reverts commit adc1796eced46b48e23ec200a219d635f33a38ee which is
commit dc23806a7c47ec5f1293aba407fb69519f976ee0 upstream.
It causes boot regressions on some systems as all of the "fixes" for
drivers are not properly backported yet. Once that is completed, only
then can this be applied, if really necessary given the potential for
explosions, perhaps we might want to wait a few -rc releases first...
