If intpm is probed first (the smbus driver), your probe won't even get
called. I think we need an early quirks or hooks handler in the pci probes
to handle stuff like this.  For example, we have hooks fixing up a handful
of wierd bios misconfigurations, collecting these together via a quirks
table or whatever would also give a convenient place for you to hook this
sort of thing into, and without it being dependent on link or probe order.
