[PATCH 1/9] uml: avoid sysfs warning on hot-unplug

["Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso" <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>]

From: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Define a release method for the ubd and network driver so that sysfs doesn't
complain when one is removed via:

host $ uml_mconsole <umid> remove <dev>

Done by Jeff around January for ubd only, later lost, then restored in his tree
- however I'm merging it now since there's no reason to leave this here.

We don't need to do any cleanup in the new added method, because when hot-unplug
is done by uml_mconsole we already handle cleanup in mconsole infrastructure,
i.e.  mc_device->remove (net_remove/ubd_remove), which is also the calling
method.
