[RFC] kobject hotplug support for 2.5.66

Hi,

Here's a patch against 2.5.66 that adds /sbin/hotplug support for
kobjects that are registered with a subsystem. This allows partitions
in /sys/block to get hotplug calls. The /sys/device/ hotplug calls were
also moved to use this logic, but the /sys/class/ hotplug call can not,
as it does not create new kobjects.

This work is based on work done by Kevin Fleming, who originally got the
hotplug support working for /sys/block.

Any comments or objections to me sending this on to Linus?

thanks,

greg k-h
