Driver core: Remove unneeded routines from driver core

This patch (as783) simplifies the driver core slightly by removing four
unnecessary _get and _put methods.

It is vital that when a driver is removed from its bus's klist of
registered drivers, or when a device is removed from a driver's klist
of bound devices, that the klist updates complete synchronously.
Otherwise the kernel might try binding an unregistered driver to a
newly-registered device, or adding a device to the klist for a new
driver before it has been removed from the old driver's klist.

Since the removals must be synchronous, they don't need to update any
reference counts.  Hence the _get and _put methods can be dispensed
with.
