e1543ddf73 Kobject: remove kobject_init() as no one uses it anymore
The old kobject_init() function is on longer in use, so let us remove it
from the public scope (kset mess in the kobject.c file still uses it,
but that can be cleaned up later very simply.)

edfaa7c365 Driver core: convert block from raw kobjects to core devices
This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a
flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one
directory. For compatibility /sys/block is created and contains symlinks
to the disks.

e5dd127846 Driver core: move the static kobject out of struct driver
This patch removes the kobject, and a few other driver-core-only fields

c63469a398 Driver core: move the driver specific module code into the driver core
The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in
the kernel/ directory.  So move this code.  This is done in preparation
for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the
driver core code only.

This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external
code should ever be calling it.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for the !CONFIG_MODULES fix.

cbe9c595f1 Driver: add driver_add_kobj for looney iseries_veth driver
The iseries driver wants to hang kobjects off of its driver, so, to
preserve backwards compatibility, we need to add a call to the driver
core to allow future changes to work properly.

Hopefully no one uses this function in the future and the iseries_veth
driver authors come to their senses so I can remove this hack...

c6f7e72a3f driver core: remove fields from struct bus_type
struct bus_type is static everywhere in the kernel.  This moves the
kobject in the structure out of it, and a bunch of other private only to
the driver core fields are now moved to a private structure.  This lets
us dynamically create the backing kobject properly and gives us the
chance to be able to document to users exactly how to use the struct
bus_type as there are no fields they can improperly access.

Thanks to Kay for the build fixes on this patch.

b249072ee6 driver core: add way to get to bus device klist
This allows an easier way to get to the device klist associated with a
struct bus_type (you have three to choose from...)  This will make it
easier to move these fields to be dynamic in a future patch.

The only user of this is the PCI core which horribly abuses this
interface to rearrange the order of the pci devices.  This should be
done using the existing bus device walking functions, but that's left
for future patches.

eb41d9465c fix struct user_info export's sysfs interaction
Clean up the use of ksets and kobjects. Kobjects are instances of
objects (like struct user_info), ksets are collections of objects of a
similar type (like the uids directory containing the user_info directories).
So, use kobjects for the user_info directories, and a kset for the "uids"
directory.

On object cleanup, the final kobject_put() was missing.

775b64d2b6 PM: Acquire device locks on suspend
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are
sent to drivers.  The major changes are that now the PM core acquires
every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to
device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del()
during suspends will block.

It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the
help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback
introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr
and cpuid) that need to use it.
