[PATCH v2 1/3] powerpc/ps3: switch to dynamic system bus root device

Driver core expects devices to be dynamically allocated and will, for
example, complain loudly if a device that lacks a release function
is ever freed.
Use root_device_register() to allocate and register the root device
instead of open coding using a static device.
