Driver core: link device and all class devices derived from it.
To ease the task of locating class devices derived from a certain
device create symlinks from parent device to its class devices.
Change USB host class device name from usbX to usb_hostX to avoid
conflict when creating aforementioned links.
Tweaked by Greg to have the symlink be "class_name:class_device_name" in
order to prevent duplicate links.

This moves the code to free devt_attr from class_device_del() to
class_dev_release() which is called after the last reference to the
corresponding kobject() is gone.
This allows us to keep the devt_attr alive while the corresponding
sysfs file is open.

One step on improving the class api so that it can not be used incorrectly.
This also fixes the module owner issue with the dev files that happened when
the devt logic moved to the class core.

sysfs: fix drivers/base so if an attribute doesn't implement
show or store method read/write will return -EIO
instead of 0.

kobject_add() and kobject_del() don't emit hotplug events anymore. Do it
ourselves if we are finished populating the device directory.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
