[RFC] kobject_init changes

[Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>]

New thread time...

Here are two patches, one that adds a two new functions,
kobject_init_ng() and kobject_init_and_add() and then a patch that shows
how a number of different users are converted over to these new
functions.

I choose the name "kobject_init_ng()" for now, so that I can do a patch
series that converts the differnet usages in the kernel tree, and then
do a global rename all at once, making it easier to find any potential
problems that might happen.

Same goes for the _and_add() function, which is really just
kobject_register() but without the uevent call, and it has proper memory
cleanup.

Any objections to these changes?

My plans with this are:
	- clean up the rest of the kernel tree usages of kobject_init()
	- rename kobject_init_ng() to kobject_init().
	- remove all users of kobject_register() and use the new
	  functions and a uevent call.
	- fix up the new kobject_create_and_register() function to be
	  create_and_add() instead.

The last one will require some patch reworking in my tree, but I have
four days of meetings next week, and two plane rides, so I'll need
something real to do :)

I suppose if I really get bored, I can fix up the cdev stuff, but that's
going to take a lot more work...

thanks,
