Merge tag 'driver-core-3.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here's the driver core, and other driver subsystems, pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge window. Outside of a few minor driver core changes, we ended up with the following different subsystem and core changes as well, due to interdependancies on the driver core: - hyperv driver updates - drivers/memory being created and some drivers moved into it - extcon driver subsystem created out of the old Android staging switch driver code - dynamic debug updates - printk rework, and /dev/kmsg changes All of this has been tested in the linux-next releases for a few weeks with no reported problems. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>" Fix up conflicts in drivers/extcon/extcon-max8997.c where git noticed that a patch to the deleted drivers/misc/max8997-muic.c driver needs to be applied to this one. * tag 'driver-core-3.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (90 commits) uio_pdrv_genirq: get irq through platform resource if not set otherwise memory: tegra{20,30}-mc: Remove empty *_remove() printk() - isolate KERN_CONT users from ordinary complete lines sysfs: get rid of some lockdep false positives Drivers: hv: util: Properly handle version negotiations.
