driver core: check bus->match without holding device lock

Browse Source 
This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and
does not hold device lock to check the match between a device
and a driver.

The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd4958609,
which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd4958609 has
the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in
the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other
paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match
twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long
device id table (eg. usb-storage driver).

This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match
in all paths, and testes the match only once.
