    newbus: Minor update fix.
    
    driver_t was supposed to just be a quick hack for 4.x
    compatibility. However, it's been documented now as the preferred API
    rather than the replacement kobj_class_t. Drop the note about 4.x since
    it's clear we're a bit late to retiring its use through the tree with
    almost 1500 references to driver_t.
