Merge tag 'driver-core-4.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the driver core / firmware changes for 4.2-rc1.
A number of small changes all over the place in the driver core, and
in the firmware subsystem. Nothing really major, full details in the
shortlog. Some of it is a bit of churn, given that the platform
driver probing changes was found to not work well, so they were
reverted.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"
