PCI: create function symlinks in /sys/bus/pci/slots/N/



Create convenience symlinks in sysfs, linking slots to device
functions, and vice versa. These links make it easier for users to
figure out which devices actually live in what slots.

For example:

sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls
1  10  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls -l 3
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 18 14:10 address
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     0 Aug 18 14:10 function0 ->
../../../../devices/pci0000:23/0000:23:01.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     0 Aug 18 14:10 function1 ->
../../../../devices/pci0000:23/0000:23:01.1

sapphire:/sys/bus/pci/slots # ls -l 3/function0/slot
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 18 14:13 3/function0/slot ->
../../../bus/pci/slots/3

The original form of this patch was written by Matthew Wilcox,
and was enhanced to include links from the sysfs slots/ directory
pointing back at the device functions.
