Driver core: add bus_find_device_by_name function
The driver core, and some other parts of the kernel just want to find a device based on a name for a specific bus. Give them a simple wrapper to prevent them from having to always roll their own. This will be used in the PPC patch later in this series. Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
