The special case here is that both ->detect and ->force are actually functions only called by the probe helpers and hence really shouldn't be here. But since they've used by pretty much every driver I figured it's better to just document this for now instead of holding this doc patch hostage until that's all fixed. For that reason also group force right next to detect.
v2: Use FIXME comments to annotate where we should move a hook to helpers.
