Merge branch 'driver-core-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6
* 'driver-core-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6: (44 commits) debugfs: Silence DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS=y warning sysfs: remove "last sysfs file:" line from the oops messages drivers/base/memory.c: fix warning due to "memory hotplug: Speed up add/remove when blocks are larger than PAGES_PER_SECTION" memory hotplug: Speed up add/remove when blocks are larger than PAGES_PER_SECTION SYSFS: Fix erroneous comments for sysfs_update_group(). driver core: remove the driver-model structures from the documentation driver core: Add the device driver-model structures to kerneldoc Translated Documentation/email-clients.txt RAW driver: Remove call to kobject_put(). reboot: disable usermodehelper to prevent fs access efivars: prevent oops on unload when efi is not enabled Allow setting of number of raw devices as a module parameter Introduce CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE driver: Google Memory Console driver: Google EFI SMI x86: Better comments for get_bios_ebda() x86: get_bios_ebda_length() misc: fix ti-st build issues params.c: Use new strtobool function to process boolean inputs debugfs: move to new strtobool ... Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/debugfs/file.c due to the same patch being applied twice, and an unrelated cleanup nearby.
