This moves us away from using the rwsem, although recursive adds and removes of class devices
is not yet possible (nor is it really known if it even is needed.)  So this simple change is
done instead.

If further finer grained locking is needed, we can add a lock to the sysdev_class to
lock the class drivers list.  But if you do that, remember the global list also is still
there and needs to be protected.  That's why I went with a simple lock for everything.

This forces the caller to provide the lock, but as they all already had one, it's not a big change.
It also removes the now-unneeded cdev_subsys.  Thanks to Jon Corbet for reminding me about that.

With this patch the floppy driver creates the usual symlink in sysfs to
the physical device backing the block device:

  $tree /sys/block/
  /sys/block/
  |-- fd0
  |   |-- dev
  |   |-- device -> ../../devices/platform/floppy0

Hmm, while playing around with it, I think we should create the "bus"
link on the physical device on not on the class device.

Also the current "driver" link at the class device should be removed,
cause class devices don't have a driver. Block devices never had this
misleading symlink.

 From the class device we point with the "device" link to the physical
 device, and only the physical device should have the "driver" and the
 "bus" link, as it represents the real relationship.

 - Move the bits_wide parameter from txn_alloc_data to txn_alloc_irq.
   It's too late by the time it hits txn_alloc_data(), we can only panic.
   In txn_alloc_irq, we can fail the allocation and continue.
 - Also fix a bug where we'd only allow up to half the interrupts to be
   allocated.  Not a problem for iosapic machines, but might have sucked
   on a really big GSC-based machine.
 - Add missing irq_enter() / irq_exit()
 - Allow interrupt processing to be interrupted by the timer tick so we
   actually account hard interrupts.  Also speed up the handling of CPU
   interrupts by not masking with cpu_eiem again.
 - Remove sufficiently obsolete DEBUG_IRQ code
 - Remove limit on times around the loop.  If we exit the loop while
   interrupts are still pending, we'll only be re-interrupted as soon
   as we exit the function.
 - Remove unnecessary includes

Patch from Petr Vandrovec

XScale detection needs access to Interrupt Enable Register on UART.
But this register shares position with high byte clock divisor, and
previous detection steps were leaving clock divisor and not IER
selected, causing misdetection of all 16550A chips as XScale.
 
Fix this by disabling access to clock divisor at the end of previous
detection step, so chip is in same mode after each detection step.
