All sysdev classes and sysdev devices will converted to regular devices
and buses to properly hook userspace into the event processing.
There is no interesting difference between a 'sysdev' and 'device' which
would justify to roll an entire own subsystem with different userspace
export semantics. Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem
infrastructure from sysdev devices, which are currently not properly
available.
Every converted sysdev class will create a regular device with the class
name in /sys/devices/system and all registered devices will becom a children
of theses devices.
For compatibility reasons, the sysdev class-wide attributes are created
at this parent device. (Do not copy that logic for anything new, subsystem-
wide properties belong to the subsystem, not to some fake parent device
created in /sys/devices.)
Every sysdev driver is implemented as a simple subsystem interface now,
and no longer called a driver.
After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

It turns out that some memory allocators use kobjects, which use krefs,
and kref.h was wanting to figure out the address of kfree(), which ended
up in a loop.
kfree was only being needed for a warning to tell the caller that they
were doing something stupid. Now we just move that warning into the
comments for the functions, which results in a bit more fun as everyone
enjoys digging for people to mock at times of boredom.
So, remove the dependancy of slab.h on kref.h, and fix up the other
include file as well (we really only need bug.h and atomic.h, not
types.h).

Commit 1b0b3b9980 ("kref: fix CPU ordering with respect to krefs")
wrongly adds memory barriers to kref.
It states:
some atomic operations are only atomic, not ordered. Thus a CPU is allowed
to reorder memory references to an object to before the reference is
obtained. This fixes it.
While true, it fails to show why this is a problem. I say it is not a
problem because if there is a race with kref_put() such that we could
end up referencing a free'd object without this memory barrier, we
would still have that race with the memory barrier.
The kref_put() in question could complete (and free the object) before
the atomic_inc() and we'd still be up shit creek.
The kref_init() case is even worse, if your object is published at this
time you're so wrong the memory barrier won't make a difference what
so ever. If its not published, the act of publishing should include
the needed barriers/locks to make sure all writes prior to the act of
publishing are complete such that others will only observe a complete
object.
