Subject: [PATCH -v4 8_2/8] PCI, sys: only create rescan under /sys/.../pci/devices/...
 for pci bridges


Current code will create rescan for every pci device,
that is not right. the device is already there, there is no reason to rescan it.

We could have rescan for pci bridges. less confusing.

Need to move rescan attr to pci dev bridge attribute group.
And We should rescan bridge's secondary bus instead of primary bus.

-v3: Use device_type for pci dev.
-v4: Seperate pci device type change out
