This splits the implicit generation of hotplug events from
kobject_add() and kobject_del(), to give the driver core
control over the time the event is created.
The kobject_register() and unregister functions still have the same
behavior and emit the events by themselves.

For HAL we want to get notified about I/O errors of block devices.
This is especially useful for devices we are unable to poll and
therefore can't know if something goes wrong here.

Currently there is no way to know what time userspace has finished writing
to a binary sysfs attribute bigger than one page. The firmware_class code uses
its own special file in the class directory to notify about this. This can
be simplified by using this release callback.
