driver core: Fix locking bug in deferred_probe_timeout_work_func()
list_for_each_entry_safe() is only useful if we are deleting nodes in a linked list within the loop. It doesn't protect against other threads adding/deleting nodes to the list in parallel. We need to grab deferred_probe_mutex when traversing the deferred_probe_pending_list.
