[PATCH RESEND 1/3] driver core: export lock_device_hotplug/unlock_device_hotplug

[Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>]

add_memory() is supposed to be run with device_hotplug_lock grabbed, otherwise
it can race with e.g. device_online(). Allow external modules (hv_balloon for
now) to lock device hotplug.
