driver core: remove the driver-model structures from the documentation

Browse Source 
Remove the struct bus_type, class, device, device_driver from the
driver-model docs. With another patch add them to device.h, since
they are out of date. That will keep things up to date and provide
a better way to document this stuff.

The Basic Device Structure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
struct device {
struct list_head g_list;
struct list_head node;
struct list_head bus_list;
struct list_head driver_list;
struct list_head intf_list;
struct list_head children;
struct device * parent;

Fields
~~~~~~
g_list: Node in the global device list.
node: Node in device's parent's children list.
bus_list: Node in device's bus's devices list.
driver_list: Node in device's driver's devices list.
intf_list: List of intf_data. There is one structure allocated for
each interface that the device supports.
children: List of child devices.
parent: *** FIXME ***
name: ASCII description of device.
Example: " 3Com Corporation 3c905 100BaseTX [Boomerang]"
bus_id: ASCII representation of device's bus position. This
field should be a name unique across all devices on the
bus type the device belongs to.
Example: PCI bus_ids are in the form of
<bus number>:<slot number>.<function number>
This name is unique across all PCI devices in the system.
lock: Spinlock for the device.
refcount: Reference count on the device.
bus: Pointer to struct bus_type that device belongs to.
dir: Device's sysfs directory.
class_num: Class-enumerated value of the device.
driver: Pointer to struct device_driver that controls the device.
driver_data: Driver-specific data.
platform_data: Platform data specific to the device.
Example: for devices on custom boards, as typical of embedded
and SOC based hardware, Linux often uses platform_data to point
to board-specific structures describing devices and how they
are wired. That can include what ports are available, chip
variants, which GPIO pins act in what additional roles, and so
on. This shrinks the "Board Support Packages" (BSPs) and
minimizes board-specific #ifdefs in drivers.
current_state: Current power state of the device.
saved_state: Pointer to saved state of the device. This is usable by
the device driver controlling the device.
release: Callback to free the device after all references have
gone away. This should be set by the allocator of the
device (i.e. the bus driver that discovered the device).
See the kerneldoc for the struct device.
