Prevent bus_remove_device() from crashing if dev-&gt;knode_bus has not been
initialized before it's called.

This can happen if the device_add() ended up breaking out early due to
an error, for example.

device_is_registered() can use the kobject value for this, so it will
now work with devices that are associated with only a class, not a bus
and a driver.

The driver core, and some other parts of the kernel just want to find a
device based on a name for a specific bus.  Give them a simple wrapper
to prevent them from having to always roll their own.

This will be used in the PPC patch later in this series.

Fix up a number of coding style issues in the drivers/base/ directory
that have annoyed me over the years.  checkpatch.pl is now very happy.

There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's
kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with
kobject_put().

Stop using kobject_register, as this way we can control the sending of
the uevent properly, after everything is properly initialized.

The driver core debugging messages are a mess.  This provides a unified
message that makes them actually useful.

The format for new kobject debug messages should be:
	driver/bus/class: 'OBJECT_NAME': FUNCTION_NAME: message.\n

Note, the class code is not changed in this patch due to pending patches
in my queue that this would conflict with.  A later patch will clean
them up.

This patch removes the kobject, and a few other driver-core-only fields
out of struct driver and into the driver core only.  Now drivers can be
safely create on the stack or statically (like they currently are.)
