[GIT PATCH] driver core patches for .39

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

Here's the "big" driver core merge for the .39 tree.

Not much for the driver core itself, but there is some firmware driver
work, and a new UIO driver as well.  Also some Documentation updates and
a new translation added.

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

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
