This series replaces static root devices with dynamically allocated
ones. Included is also a related printk cleanup.

Changes in v2:
 - only set ibmebus root pointer on successful registration
 - add sanity check when registering ibmebus devices to avoid
   use-after-free if ibmebus_register_driver() is called after the bus
   failed to register (Sashiko flagged this path which I had missed)


Johan Hovold (3):
  powerpc/ps3: switch to dynamic system bus root device
  powerpc/pseries: switch to dynamic ibmebus root device
  powerpc/pseries: clean up ibmebus printks
