Sorry you said order by which drivers are probed. Yes I would agree that
you cannot control the order drivers are probed, but just the order
devices are registered.

However, I don't see this as being a device-tree specific issue. Even
when not using device-tree you would need to ensure that probing the
parent happens before the child for the GPMC.
