The series addresses several different issues:
1. Fixes several issues discovered by Greg KH's code review:
* Converts client_bus_info into a debugfs structure instead of using
sysfs.
* Refactors the code in the functions processing controlvm messages to
avoid calling bus_epilog and device_epilog, as an intermediate step
towards simplifying the controlvm processing so that it is clear that
error codes produced in this code are in-fact being returned to the
s-Par firmware, and NOT being ignored. Note that we are currently
sending back to the s-Par Firmware a linux error code (e.g., -ENOMEM)
when we should be sending back a ControlVM error code; a later series
will address that.
* In the process of doing this refactoring, error-handling was added
to several of the controlvm-handling functions.
2. Address a problem where we were sending double responses back to the
s-Par Firmware when processing CONTROLVM Messages.
3. Several misc formatting and style correction patches are included as
well.
