    vme: Convert VME core to register as a subsystem · c326cc02

    Previously, VME bridge support was treated as any other driver (using
    module_init() macro), but if VME bridge and vme_user (staging) drivers
    were compiled into the kernel, then vme_user would attempt to register
    itself before the VME core support had been loaded. This would result
    in a kernel panic.
    
    The load order of these built-in drivers is based on the order in which
    drivers/staging/vme and driver/vme are compiled.
    
    This patch changes the VME core driver to use the subsys_initcall()
    macro which ensures that it is loaded before all other VME drivers
    regardless of the order in which they are compiled.
