Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] driver core: bus.h: document bus notifiers better

The bus notifier values are not documented all that well, so clean this
up and make a real enumerated type for them and document them much
better.  Also change the values from being in hex to just decimal as it
didn't make any sense to have them in hex.

v2: move the values to decimal from hex as pointed out by Rafael.
