[PATCH 18/60] Driver core: move the bus notifier call points

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch (as1184) changes the location of the notifications in
device_add() and device_del().  Now the BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE message
is sent after dpm_sysfs_add(), which is necessary for clients that
want to add attributes to the power/ subdirectory.  The
BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE message is correspondingly moved before
dpm_sysfs_remove().
