Merge tag 'driver-core-4.15-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are 3 small fixes for some reported issues:
- a debugfs build error that lots of people have reported
- a Kconfig help text cleanup now that the firmware is not in the
kernel tree
- an ISA bus bug fix for a reported issue that has been there since
2.6.18.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"
* tag 'driver-core-4.15-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core:
firmware: cleanup FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL message
isa: Prevent NULL dereference in isa_bus driver callbacks
debugfs: fix debugfs_real_fops() build error

help
- The kernel source tree includes a number of firmware 'blobs'
- that are used by various drivers. The recommended way to
- use these is to run "make firmware_install", which, after
- converting ihex files to binary, copies all of the needed
- binary files in firmware/ to /lib/firmware/ on your system so
- that they can be loaded by userspace helpers on request.
+ Various drivers in the kernel source tree may require firmware,
+ which is generally available in your distribution's linux-firmware
+ package.
+
+ The linux-firmware package should install firmware into
+ /lib/firmware/ on your system, so they can be loaded by userspace
+ helpers on request.
Enabling this option will build each required firmware blob
- into the kernel directly, where request_firmware() will find
- them without having to call out to userspace. This may be
- useful if your root file system requires a device that uses
- such firmware and do not wish to use an initrd.
+ specified by EXTRA_FIRMWARE into the kernel directly, where
+ request_firmware() will find them without having to call out to
+ userspace. This may be useful if your root file system requires a
+ device that uses such firmware and you do not wish to use an
+ initrd.
This single option controls the inclusion of firmware for
- every driver that uses request_firmware() and ships its
- firmware in the kernel source tree, which avoids a
+ every driver that uses request_firmware(), which avoids a
proliferation of 'Include firmware for xxx device' options.
Say 'N' and let firmware be loaded from userspace.
