Driver core / kernfs pull request for 3.16-rc1

Here is the "big" pull request for 3.16-rc1.
Not a lot of changes here, some kernfs work, a revert of a very old
driver core change that ended up cauing some memory leaks on driver
probe error paths, and other minor things.

As was pointed out earlier today, one commit here,
26fc9cd200ec839e0b3095e05ae018f27314e7aa (kernfs: move the last
knowledge of sysfs out from kernfs) is also needed in your 3.15-final
branch as well.  If you could cherry-pick it there, it would be most
appreciated by Andy Lutomirski to prevent a regression there.

All of these have been in linux-next for a while.

Note, that merge description was wrong, I merged into driver-core-next
but fat-fingered the message when doing the commit description, sorry
about that.
