For drivers wishing to expose an unsigned long, int or bool at a static
memory location in sysfs, the driver core provides ready-made helpers
such as device_show_ulong() to be used as ->show() callback.
Some drivers need to expose a string and so far they all provide their
own ->show()
Introduce a generic ->show() callback to expose a string as a device
attribute in sysfs. Deduplicate various identical callbacks across
the tree.
Result: Minus 216 LoC, minus 1576 bytes vmlinux size (x86_64 allyesconfig).
This is a byproduct of my upcoming PCI device authentication v2 patches.
