So what e.g. the PCI patch
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CACK8Z6E8pjVeC934oFgr=vb3pulx_gyt2nkzaogdrqj9tks...@mail.gmail.com/
actually proposes is a list of
allowed drivers, not devices. Doing it at the device level
has disadvantages, for example some devices might have a legacy
unsafe driver, or an out of tree driver. It also does not
address drivers that poke at hardware during init.

Accordingly, I think the right thing to do is to skip
driver init for disallowed drivers, not skip probe
for specific devices.
