Low-level comedi drivers registered with the comedi core by
`comedi_driver_register()` are linked together into a simple linked list
headed by the `comedi_drivers` variable and chained by the `next` member
of `struct comedi_driver`. A driver is removed from the list by
`comedi_driver_unregister()`. The driver list is iterated through by
`comedi_device_attach()` when the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl is used to
attach a "legacy" device to a driver, and is also iterated through by
`comedi_read()` in "proc.c" when reading "/proc/comedi".
There is currently no protection against items being added or removed
from the list while it is being iterated. Add a mutex
`comedi_drivers_list_lock` to be locked while adding or removing an item
on the list, or when iterating through the list.
`comedi_driver_unregister()` also checks for and detaches any devices
using the driver. This is currently done before unlinking the driver
from the list, but it makes more sense to unlink the driver from the
list first to prevent `comedi_device_attach()` attempting to use it, so
move the unlinking part to the start of the function. Also, in
`comedi_device_attach()` hold on to the mutex until we've finished
attempting to attach the device to avoid it interfering with the
detachment in `comedi_driver_unregister()`.

Addresses change...
Remove the paragraph with the FSF address from all the comedi source
files.
Also, remove the paragraph about the finding the complete GPL in the
COPYING file since it's unnecessary.

Don't use create_proc_read_entry() as that is deprecated, but rather use
proc_create_data() and seq_file instead.

Instead of using the #ifdef'ery in the comedi_compat32.c and proc.c
files to include/exclude them from the comedi core, modify the Makefile
to include those files automatically when enabled in the .config.

Remove the need to export comedi_get_device_file_info() by using the
new helper comedi_dev_from_minor(). This will also allow us to make
the comedi_device_file_info struct private.

Move the contents of "comedi_fops.h" into "comedi_internal.h" and delete
"comedi_fops.h". It only contains a couple of external variable
declarations (and #include <linux/types.h>) and one of those isn't even
declared in "comedi_fops.c". The other one is an external declaration
of a variable used to store a module parameter and some of those are
already externally declared in "comedi_internal.h", so they can keep it
company!

The whole file should be converted to use seqfile, if it's even
still needed. Or move to debugfs.
Anyway, I fixed up the minor issues here.

Lindent changes to comdi driver in staging tree.
This patch is followed by the checkpatch.pl error fixes.
Did not make them part of this patch as the patch size is already huge.

This adds the Comedi core to the staging tree.
This is a data acquision infrastructure for Linux, providing a common
interface for these types of drivers.
Taken directly from the comedi git tree, with only minor tweaks
by Greg to get it to build properly within the kernel tree.
