Sorry I'm not very clear about the termination of PCI probe you mentioned.
I did some test in current code base: there're two ports (87:00.0 and 87:00.2)bound to igb_uio, and force the first port to fail to initialize, I find that the second port still can finish initialization successfully. I thought it has met your request. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

EAL: PCI device 0000:87:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
EAL:   probe driver: 8086:1572 net_i40e
~failed
eth_i40e_dev_init(): Failed to sync phy type: 0
EAL: PCI device 0000:87:00.1 on NUMA socket -1
EAL:   probe driver: 8086:1572 net_i40e
EAL: PCI device 0000:87:00.2 on NUMA socket -1
EAL:   probe driver: 8086:1572 net_i40e
~succeed
