BUS_ID_SIZE is going away

Hey,
care to replace:
  bus_id[BUS_ID_SIZE];
in:
  include/linux/fsl_devices.h
with a locally defined limit, or whatever fits your needs? Or let me
know how you like it to be converted, and I can make a patch, and we
can push it through the driver-core tree.

The driver core and kobjects have no longer a limit on the device
names. We want to remove BUS_ID_SIZE from the driver core header in
the current 2.6.30 timeframe.

Thanks,
Kay

gianfar_platform_data and several other symbols in that file are
actually obsolete and unused.  They can be removed entirely from
include/linux/fsl_devices.h.  I'll prepare a patch.
