Summary

GPUs often have VGA PCI device IDs and are probed/attached
by the VGA driver. Allow them to be detached so they can
be presented as passthru devices to VM guests.

Cosmetic nits. Existing style in this file is to use 'error' instead of 'rc' and to not do assignments inside of conditionals, so:

int error;

error = bus_generic_detach(dev);
if (error == 0)
    errror = device_delete_children(dev);
return (error);
