[RFC PATCH 06/14] driver core: wire device_ktype populate to walker

Wire the kernfs syscall callback shape (kobject *, const char *)
to the device-level walker. Add device_ktype_populate_one() and
device_ktype_populate_all() adapters that dispatch through
device_sysfs_apply() over dev->kobj.ktype->entries (currently
NULL; the migration commit installs driver_core_sysfs_entries[]).

The adapters early-return when dev->p->dead is set so a populate
racing with device_del() is a no-op.

No behaviour change: the table is empty until the migration commit.
