Looks good here - except that you missed a driver which broke the
upstream build - fix patch attached below.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissions, fix
The build of the dabusb driver broke:
drivers/media/video/dabusb.c:758: error: unknown field 'nodename' specified in initializer
drivers/media/video/dabusb.c:758: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
make[3]: *** wait: No child processes. Stop.
Due to this commit:
e454cea: Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissions
Missing the dabusb driver's dabusb_nodename() callback.
