instead.
delayed_register
The option is needed for devices that have multiple streams
defined in multiple USB interfaces. The driver may invoke
registrations multiple times (once per interface) and this may
lead to the insufficient device enumeration.
This option receives an array of strings, and you can pass
ID:INTERFACE like ``0123abcd:4`` for performing the delayed
registration to the given device. In this example, when a USB
device 0123:abcd is probed, the driver waits the registration
until the USB interface 4 gets probed.
The driver prints a message like "Found post-registration device
assignment: 1234abcd:04" for such a device, so that user can
notice the need.
This module supports multiple devices, autoprobe and hotplugging.
