[BKPATCH] bus notifiers for the generic device model

There are certain bus types (notably MCA and parisc internal ones) that like
to do generic houskeeping operations (claim slots, claim uniform resources
etc.) when drivers are attached to devices.

I've added a fairly generic notifier callback to the bus_type so that these
busses can intercept and process the events they're interested in.

At the moment, the only events are attachment and detachment of drivers but in
principle, more could be added.

make bus notify events more general in generic device model

ChangeSet@1.927, 2002-12-03 14:16:53-06:00, jejb@raven.il.steeleye.com
add device model bus notifier

This adds a bus notifier (per bus type) which is called after a device
driver successfully attaches to a device. The idea behind this is
that there are certain operations that need to be performed globally
after driver attachment (bus resource claiming etc.). This notifier
is set by the bus so that it can do these.
