Subject: [PATCH 16/36] sh: dma-sysfs: move to use bus_get_dev_root()

Direct access to the struct bus_type dev_root pointer is going away soon
so replace that with a call to bus_get_dev_root() instead, which is what
it is there for.

Note, this is a patch that is a prepatory cleanup as part of a larger
series of patches that is working on resolving some old driver core
design mistakes. It will build and apply cleanly on top of 6.3-rc2 on
its own, but I'd prefer if I could take it through my driver-core tree
so that the driver core changes can be taken through there for 6.4-rc1.

After acking this, I noticed that if bus_get_dev_root() fails, "ret" remains
set to the value by subsys_system_register() which might confuse the caller
thinking that dma_subsys_init() succeeded unless I am missing something?
