[GIT PATCH] driver core patches for 2.6.31-git

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
