driver core: Avoid binding drivers to dead devices
Commit 3451a495ef24 ("driver core: Establish order of operations for
device_add and device_del via bitflag") sought to prevent asynchronous
driver binding to a device which is being removed. It added a
per-device "dead" flag which is checked in the following code paths:
* asynchronous binding in __driver_attach_async_helper()
* synchronous binding in device_driver_attach()
* asynchronous binding in __device_attach_async_helper()
It did *not* check the flag upon:
* synchronous binding in __device_attach()
However __device_attach() may also be called asynchronously from:
deferred_probe_work_func()
bus_probe_device()
device_initial_probe()
__device_attach()
So if the commit's intention was to check the "dead" flag in all
asynchronous code paths, then a check is also necessary in
__device_attach(). Add the missing check.
