<this time with a valid subject...>

Here's another patch in my steps of removing the use of the subsystem
rwsem lock.  I've converted the sysdev subsystem here to use a spinlock
(instead of a semaphore, like my previous class patch did, I'll go
change that later too.)

The patch is against 2.6.11-rc1.  Any comments would be appreciated.

thanks,

-------
sysdev: change locking to use a class based spinlock

Use the new lock, and not the global subsystem lock.  This is a step in
removing the rwsem from subsystems, and should allow sysdevs to now be
able to add and remove themselves from within their function callbacks.
