Subject:   device_detach() never clears devclasses

I haven't reproduced this, I just have a hunch based on code-reading while 
fixing another bug.  Ah, looking in SVN history it looks like this was broken 
in 129711 when device_attach() was split out of device_probe_and_attach().  
Specifically, if DEVICE_ATTACH() fails then this:

		/* Unset the class; set in device_probe_child */
		if (dev->devclass == NULL)
			(void)device_set_devclass(dev, NULL);

is wrong.  dev->devclass is always non-NULL at this point.  However, we should 
be clearing the devclass for any device that doesn't have a fixed device 
class.  And in fact that is what device_detach() does:

	if (!(dev->flags & DF_FIXEDCLASS))
		devclass_delete_device(dev->devclass, dev);

The patch below fixes this:
