[PATCH] add usb_add_bus() function for usb bus list

[Tomohiro Kusumi]

Hi,

This patch makes usbcore driver sort usb bus on the usb_bus_list by busnum when
registering a new bus instance.

In current implementation a new bus instance is simply added in front of existing busses.
Although there is nothing wrong with it in kernel code, reloading HCD may break bus order
of /proc/bus/usb/devices as it makes usbcore re-register the bus to the list as shown in
the example below. and it doesn't look good or it may confuse some users.

# lsmod | grep hcd
uhci_hcd               19324  0 
ehci_hcd               39109  0 
# grep "Bus=" /proc/bus/usb/devices
T:  Bus=05 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=04 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=03 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=02 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#=  2 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=02 Dev#=  3 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
T:  Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=480 MxCh= 8
T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=480 MxCh= 4
# rmmod ehci-hcd; modprobe ehci-hcd
# grep "Bus=" /proc/bus/usb/devices
T:  Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=480 MxCh= 8
T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=480 MxCh= 4
T:  Bus=05 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=04 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=03 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=02 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=1.5 MxCh= 0
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=02 Dev#=  5 Spd=12  MxCh= 0

With this patch, bus instances on the usb_bus_list is kept in busnum order (from large to
small busnum). As a result /proc/bus/usb/devices prints devices in busnum order regardless
of HCD reloading. Although a few applications (eg.lsusb) use /proc/bus/usb/devices, this
patch has no effect to them.
