Agreed, a good use case that comes to mind would be systemd's
modules-load.d lists used by systemd services to require modules, the
hooks there however likely expect probe to complete as part of the
service, since the timeout is not applicable to these the synchronous
probe for them would be good while systemd would use async probe for
regular modules.

Agreed.
