Merge tag 'driver-core-5.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core/kobject updates from Greg KH: "Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.2-rc1 There are a number of ACPI patches in here as well, as Rafael said they should go through this tree due to the driver core changes they required. They have all been acked by the ACPI developers. There are also a number of small subsystem-specific changes in here, due to some changes to the kobject core code. Those too have all been acked by the various subsystem maintainers. As for content, it's pretty boring outside of the ACPI changes: - spdx cleanups - kobject documentation updates - default attribute groups for kobjects - other minor kobject/driver core fixes All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-5.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (47 commits) kobject: clean up the kobject add documentation a bit more kobject: Fix kernel-doc comment first line kobject: Remove docstring reference to kset firmware_loader: Fix a typo ("syfs" -> "sysfs") kobject: fix dereference before null check on kobj Revert "driver core: platform: Fix the usage of platform device name(pdev->name)" init/config: Do not select BUILD_BIN2C for IKCONFIG Provide in-kernel headers to make extending kernel easier kobject: Improve doc clarity kobject_init_and_add() kobject: Improve docs for kobject_add/del driver core: platform: Fix the usage of platform device name(pdev->name) livepatch: Replace klp_ktype_patch's default_attrs with groups cpufreq: schedutil: Replace default_attrs field with groups padata: Replace padata_attr_type default_attrs field with groups irqdesc: Replace irq_kobj_type's default_attrs field with groups net-sysfs: Replace ktype default_attrs field with groups block: Replace all ktype default_attrs with groups samples/kobject: Replace foo_ktype's default_attrs field with groups kobject: Add support for default attribute groups to kobj_type driver core: Postpone DMA tear-down until after devres release for probe failure ...
