d7729f0fc4 VME: Rename vme_slot_get to avoid confusion with reference counting
Traditionally the "get" functions increment the reference count of the
object that is returned, which does not happen with vme_slot_get. The
function vme_slot_get returns the physical VME slot associated with a
particular struct vme_dev. Rename vme_slot_num to avoid any confusion.

978f47d643 VME: Provide access to VME bus enumeration and fix vme_user match function
The match function for vme_user is completely wrong. It will blindly bind
against the first VME slot on each bus (at this point that would be just the
first bus as the driver can only handle one bus).

The original intention (before some major subsystem changes) was that the
driver bind against the slot to which the bridge was attached in the VME
system and to the bus(es) provided via the "bus" module parameter.

To do this cleanly (i.e. without poking arround in the subsystems internal
stuctures) a functionality has been added to provide access to the bus
enumeration.

db3b9e990e Staging: VME: move VME drivers out of staging
This moves the VME core, VME board drivers, and VME bridge drivers out
of the drivers/staging/vme/ area to drivers/vme/.

The VME device drivers have not moved out yet due to some API questions
they are still working through, that should happen soon, hopefully.
