[GIT PATCH] driver core merge for .37-rc1

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

Here's the big driver-core merge for .37-rc1

The largest thing in here is a new misc driver, which seemed to make
sense to go through this tree.  Other than that, it's a number of small
things, all described below.

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 now.

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

thanks,

greg k-h
