Driver core: move the bus notifier call points
This patch (as1184) changes the location of the notifications in
device_add() and device_del(). Now the BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE message
is sent after dpm_sysfs_add(), which is necessary for clients that
want to add attributes to the power/ subdirectory. The
BUS_NOTIFY_DEL_DEVICE message is correspondingly moved before
dpm_sysfs_remove().
