Modify the dev_get_setting_list function to get the site-specific
attributes of the device. The new site_id parameter for this function
must be less than SITE_FALLBACK to read the site-specific attributes.
As SITE_FALLBACK setting is same as persistent setting, we do not need
a separate read function for it.

Auto-configuration is the name of a new configuration target that is
supported by chzdev and lszdev besides the existing active and
persistent configuration targets. Directives created in this new
configuration are stored as udev rules in the /run/udev/rules.d
directory.
Auto-configuration directives are only in effect if there are no
directives for the same device in the user-provided persistent
configuration. This allows users to override auto-configuration
directives if necessary.
Due to the volatile nature of the /run directory, auto-configuration
directives are cleared on reboot. Therefore mechanisms that generate
auto-configuration directives must recreate them on every boot.
The lszdev tool displays auto-configuration data both in list view
as well as in detail view. Users can specify the new option --auto-conf
to only show data from this configuration target.
Mechanisms that generate automated configuration directives can use
chzdev together with the --auto-conf option to create the corresponding
udev rules.
Note: This change does not include a mechanism that generates
auto-configuration directives.

Add support for reading firmware-provided I/O configuration data files.
Such configuration files are generated by the Dynamic Partition Manager
and made available via a kernel interface for consumption by Linux.
To read a firmware configuration file, use the existing --import option:
# chzdev --import /sys/firmware/sclp_sd/config/data
This will apply all I/O configuration data found in the specified file
to the persistent configuration.
