Subject: sysdev: Pass attribute in sysdev_class attributes show/store

Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
an own function for every piece of data.

Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
and use that in the low level function.

Similar to sysdev_attributes and normal attributes.

This is a tree-wide sweep, converting everything in one go.

No functional changes in this patch other than passing the new
argument everywhere.

Tested on x86, the non x86 parts are uncompiled.

Subject: Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type

Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing
