The problem is that dev->driver_data for a ccw device is NULL,
while it should point to the ccwgroup device it is a member of.
This happened due to incorrect cleanup if creating a ccwgroup
device failed because the ccw devices were already grouped.

Fix this by setting cdev[i] to NULL in the error handling of
ccwgroup_create_from_string() after we give up our reference and
by checking if the driver_data points to the ccwgroup device in
ccwgroup_release() just to be really sure.

Fix ccw group device initialization: initialize device object before
using reference counting during cleanup.

Fixes the following message when group device initialization fails
(e.g. because too few devices where specified):

  kobject: '<NULL>' (..): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is
           being called.

There are two ways for a ccwgroup device to be unregistered:
Via the ungroup attribute, or when on of the slave devices is killed
by a machine check. As we have to unregister the ccwgroup device
via a callback, we'll now have to check whether it hasn't been
already unregistered because of a machine check.

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.

This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need
to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's
context.  This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to
unregister themselves or their parent device.  Attribute method calls
are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be
taken directly.

Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one
for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

Use different kind of assignment to make sure gcc doesn't create code
that creates temp variables on the stack, assigns values to it and
copies the content of the whole temp variable to the destination.
This reduces stack usage of e.g. ccwgroup_driver_register from 976
to 48 bytes instead.

Work around the problem that a device cannot be unregistered from
driver_for_each_device() because of klist node refcounting: Get device
after device owned by the driver to be unregistered with driver_find_device()
and then unregister it. This works because driver_get_device() gets us out of
the region of the elevated klist node refcount. driver_find_device() will
always get the next device in the list after the found one has been
unregistered.

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!
