staging: add Fieldbus Device subsystem.
Fieldbus device (client) adapters allow data exchange with a PLC aka. "Fieldbus Controller" over a fieldbus (Profinet, FLNet, etc.) They are typically used when a Linux device wants to expose itself as an actuator, motor, console light, switch, etc. over the fieldbus. This framework is designed to provide a generic interface to Fieldbus Devices from both the Linux Kernel and the userspace.
