fwctl: Add basic structure for a class subsystem with a cdev
Create the class, character device and functions for a fwctl driver to
un/register to the subsystem.
A typical fwctl driver has a sysfs presence like:
$ ls -l /dev/fwctl/fwctl0
crw------- 1 root root 250, 0 Apr 25 19:16 /dev/fwctl/fwctl0
$ ls /sys/class/fwctl/fwctl0
dev device power subsystem uevent
$ ls /sys/class/fwctl/fwctl0/device/infiniband/
ibp0s10f0
$ ls /sys/class/infiniband/ibp0s10f0/device/fwctl/
fwctl0/
$ ls /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0a.0/fwctl/fwctl0
dev device power subsystem uevent
Which allows userspace to link all the multi-subsystem driver components
together and learn the subsystem specific names for the device's
components.
