This patch extends the existing initcall_debug functionality; I've
copied the methods used by do_one_initcall_debug() to compute and
report timing info in a compatible format. If it's better to change
the way this is reported, I can also suggest changes to the existing
initcall_debug code. cc'ed the maintainers (I should have in the
first place).

analyze_boot.py parses the dmesg output printed by initcall_debug to
produce those graphs (and can also produce ftrace-based function
callgraphs). The initcall_debug output printed (and graphed) for
deferred probe calls are lumped into a single entry
"deferred_probe_initcall". This patch logs the times of the
individual deferred probe calls by device name, to better help
developers understand where the time is spent. If this feature finds
favor, it may also be deemed useful to update analyze_boot.py to graph
this information.

dev_info() is fine by me, if the initcall_debug command line parameter
is specified I would think it shouldn't be required to use the debug
loglevel. But we may want to change the existing initcall_debug
messages to use info loglevel as well.
