[GIT PATCH] driver core patches for 2.6.31-git

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

Here is the driver core patchset for the 2.6.31 merge window

It consists of a variety of different things:
	- devtmpfs.  This has been discussed a lot, is tiny,
	  self-contained, and has been acked by all of the major distros
	  as something they will use, and it has been used in the SuSE
	  kernels for quite some time now.
	- driver core cleanups
	- debugfs documentation updates
	- uio drivers
	- hplio driver updates (for some reason they came in through
	  this tree due to procedural issues, they are self-contained).
	- other minor stuff.

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

All of these patches have been in the linux-next and mm trees for a
long time.

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

thanks,

greg k-h
