Description

bus: retire DF_REBID

I did DF_REBID to allow for 'hoover' drivers that would attach to
otherwise unattached devices in the tree. This notion didn't catch on as
it was tricky to make work well and it was easier to just publish a /dev
node of some flavor by the parent device. It's been nothing but dead
weight for a long time.
