Subject: [PATCH v2] platform: Add support for automatic device IDs
Right now we have support for explicit platform device IDs, as well as
ID-less platform devices when a given device type can only have one
instance. However there are cases where multiple instances of a device
type can exist, and their IDs aren't (and can't be) known in advance
and do not matter. In that case we need automatic device IDs to avoid
device name collisions.
I am using magic ID value -2 (PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO) for this, similar
to -1 for ID-less devices. The automatically allocated device IDs are
global (to avoid an additional per-driver cost.) We keep note that the
ID was automatically allocated so that it can be freed later.
Note that we also restore the ID to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO on error and
device deletion, to avoid avoid unexpected behavior on retry. I don't
really expect retries on platform device addition, but better safe
than sorry.

Alternatively, platform_device.id_auto could be an int, used to store
the automatically allocated ID. This would avoid overwriting/restoring
platform_device.id itself.
Changes since v1:
* New struct member id_auto is used to distinguish between automatic
and explicit IDs.
* Automatic IDs are no longer stored as negative numbers.
* PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO changed from -4 to -2, short of a good reason to
not use -2.
Code not tested yet, my test machine is currently used for a different
task that cannot be interrupted.
