driver core: class: specify the module owner in __class_register()

There's no need to manually have to set the module owner of a class, the
compiler should do it automatically for you, so add a module * to the
__class_register() function and allow it to set the module owner
automatically.

This will let us move the module pointer out of struct class eventually,
as it should not be embedded in there if we wish for it to be a
read-only structure eventually.

And, funny story, this module pointer isn't even being used for
anything, so while we will keep it around for now, it's not like it even
matters.
