Here is the big patch series for the driver core for your tree.

It's just lots of little things, cleanups of apis, and documentation,
and other minor stuff. Most of the cleanups are being done for future
changes to the driver core, to prevent us from having to touch code
outside of it.

There are also some debugfs updates as well.

All of the non-driver-core touching patches have been sent to the
various subsystem maintainers and gotten acks for them.

Please pull from:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6.git/

All of these patches have been in the linux-next and mm trees for a
while.

The patches will be sent as a follow-on to this message to lkml for people
to see.

thanks,

greg k-h
