staging: vme: add struct vme_dev for VME devices
Instead of using a vanilla 'struct device' for VME devices, add new 'struct vme_dev'. Modifications have been made to the VME framework API as well as all in-tree VME drivers. The new vme_dev structure has the following advantages from the current model used by the driver: * Driver functions (probe, remove) now receive a VME device instead of a pointer to the bridge device (cleaner design) * It's easier to differenciate API calls as bridge-based or device-based (ie. cleaner interface).
