Subject: [PATCH 1/3] driver-core: Implement device_match_always()

From: Thierry Reding <treding@...dia.com>

This is a helper function that can be used in iterators, such as
bus_find_device(), and will always match. This is useful to implement a
custom iterator interface on top of bus_find_device() or to check if any
devices have been registered at all.
