Hello,

add a controller_add and add controller_remove method, taking a typesafe

I had this before, but i want the notification also for I2O devices,
because the driver model won't call probe functions for devices, which
are already occupied by a other driver.
Then please add more methods. Multiplexer calls are an extremly bad idea.
Okay, i prefer type safety too, but i also don't like too many functions...
What do you think about that:
enum i2o_notify {
ADD = 0;
REMOVE = 1;
}
i2o_notify_controller(enum i2o_notify, struct i2o_controller *);
i2o_notify_device(enum i2o_notify, struct i2o_device *);
Best regards,
