driver-core?  No, you should make this against char-misc-next.  But
really, just make it against 4.13-rc7 and then it shouldn't matter what
tree I pull it into.

Also, can you provide more merge text information?  A one line really
doesn't say what is going on here.  Look on lkml for lots of examples of
what people put here.

As an example, see the emails I send to Linus for when I ask him to pull
the char-misc tree.
