Just realised that vme_buses_lock also protects vme_bus_list; appending
to this list here should be protected by the mutex, otherwise
vme_add_bus (ie this function) could race with __vme_register_driver,
which might access a corrupt copy of the list.

Note that vme_remove_bus does the right thing though; it acquires
the lock before unpinning the bridge from vme_bus_list.
