[GIT PATCH] Driver core patches for 2.6.21

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

Here are some driver core patche for 2.6.21.

They do a wide range of things, see the shortlog below for details.

All of these have been in the -mm tree for quite some time.

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

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

thanks,
