When a new device with a specialised device driver is plugged in, the
new driver will be modprobe()'d but the driver core will attach the
"generic" driver to the device.

After that, nothing will trigger a reprobe when the modprobe()'d device
driver has finished initialising, as the device has the "generic"
driver attached to it.

Trigger a reprobe ourselves when new specialised drivers get registered.

Fixes: 88b7381a939d ("USB: Select better matching USB drivers when available")

Changes since v5:
- Throw error when device_reprobe() fails

Changes since v4:
- Add commit subject to "fixes" section
- Clarify conditional that checks for generic driver
- Remove check duplicated inside the loop

Changes since v3:
- Only reprobe devices that could use the new driver
- Many code fixes

Changes since v2:
- Fix formatting

Changes since v1:
- Simplified after Alan Stern's comments and some clarifications from
Benjamin Tissoires.

Greg, Alan, are you happy with this iteration?

If so, I can send it again with Alan's acks, along with a fix for the
function name Alan mentioned. I see that the first patch in the list
landed in usb-next already.

Yes, please resend the remaining patches.  I don't recall seeing Alan's
ack on it.

This is almost the same as v5, which I already Acked.  The only 
difference is the error logging when the reprobe fails, and that looks 
fine.  So...

Acked-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

Resent as v7. There's a new patch in the lot, based on a comment by
Alan in this thread which I thought appropriate to include.

Thanks, will look at them once 5.9-rc1 is out as I can't do anything
with my tree until then.
