linux-next: build failure after merge of the driver-core tree

Hi all,

After merging the driver-core tree, today's linux-next build
(s390-defconfig) failed like this:

drivers/s390/crypto/ap_bus.c:1596:20: error: initialization of 'ssize_t (*)(const struct bus_type *, char *)' {aka 'long int (*)(const struct bus_type *, char *)'} from incompatible pointer type 'ssize_t (*)(struct bus_type *, char *)' {aka 'long int (*)(struct bus_type *, char *)'} [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]

(reported here: http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/14902509/)

Caused by commit

75cff725d956 ("driver core: bus: mark the struct bus_type for sysfs callbacks as constant")

interacting with commit

d7b1813af6a5 ("s390/ap: introduce new AP bus sysfs attribute features")

from the s390 tree.

I will apply the following (currently untested) merge fix up patch from
tomorrow:

Subject: [PATCH] fixup for "driver core: bus: mark the struct bus_type for sysfs callbacks as constant"
