To make it configurable.
Unique discovery controllers show up in configfs just like any other 
subsystems.
And with that we need to clarify the relationship between the discovery 
subsystem and the other subsystems, ie which subsystems should be 
presented by this discovery subsystem.

Linking the discovery subsystem into a given port makes it obvious that
a) this port will be presenting a discovery subsystem
and
b) that the discovery subsystem will be presenting all subsystems 
configured on that port.

The built-in mechanism for discovery subsystems was okay as long as the 
discovery subsystem was built-in, too.
But with this patchset we're moving to an explicit configuration.

Cheers,

Hannes
