Here's the big driver-core merge for .37-rc1
The largest thing in here is a new misc driver, which seemed to make
sense to go through this tree. Other than that, it's a number of small
things, all described below.
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
while now.
The patches will be sent as a follow-on to this message to lkml for
people to see.
thanks,
greg k-h
