[BK PATCH] Driver Core patches for 2.6.7

[Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>]

Hi,

Here are a bunch of driver core and i2c patches for 2.6.7 (I merged the
two trees, as they were conflicting in spots.)  They contain:
	- some sysfs and driver model attribute core changes
	- fixes to the kernel where people didn't put a ';' at the end
	  of their driver and device attribute definitions.
	- i2c bug fixes 
	- sysfs class support for raw devices, allowing udev to work
	  with raw devices.  This patch is shipping in the SuSE kernel.
	- other sysfs class support patches.
	- sparse cleanups.

These patches used to be in the -mm tree, until last -mm release where
it conflicted with the scsi code too much.  That merge has been fixed
here.

Please pull from:
	bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/linux/driver-2.6

thanks,

greg k-h

p.s. I'll send these as patches in response to this email to lkml for
those who want to see them.
