Merge tag 'driver-core-3.13-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are 3 patches for sysfs issues that have been reported. Well, 1
patch really, the first one is reverted as it's not really needed (the
correct fix is coming in through the different driver subsystems
instead)
But that 1 sysfs fix is needed, so this is still a good thing to pull
in now"
