This adds sysfs nodes that the hotplug userspace can use to load the
appropriate modules.

In order for hotplug to work with macio devices, patches to
module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied.  Those patches are
available at:

 ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jeffm/linux/macio-hotplug/

Changes: The previous versions were built on 2.6.12. 2.6.13-rcX introduced
         a device_attribute parameter to the show functions. Since that
         parameter was treated as the output buffer, memory corruption would
         result, causing Oopsen very quickly.
