Buglink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1980750
SRU Justification:
[Impact]
Improve the driver dependency on the gpio driver. Move
that dependency to the probe as instructed by maintainers.
Flush if there is remaining work while the driver is removed.
[Fix]
* Instead of using SOFTDEP, return -EPROBE_DEFER if the gpio-mlxbf2.c driver is not loaded yet.
* Flush work when driver is removed.
[Test Case]
* Test case only valid on Board with BMC on it:
* Make sure driver is loaded and no errors in dmesg.
* issue a power reset from the BMC via IPMI.
[Regression Potential]
Any of the test cases above could be impacted due to these changes.
