well, I there is another way to do that: adding a function like this
(include/linux/device.h) :

/**
* run a callback for each registered bus type
*
* @data : arg passed to callback
* @fn : pointer to callback
*/
int for_each_bus(void *data, int (*fn)(struct bus_type *bus, void *data));

which would be similar to the already existing bus_for_each_dev() and
would allow to avoid exporting a global variable.
