Subject[BK PATCH] Driver Core patches for 2.6.10-rc1
Hi,

Here are some driver core patches for 2.6.10-rc1. The majority of them
have all been in the -mm tree for a while. They contain:
- bugfix for the hotplug calls that was breaking all firmware
downloads.
- sysfs backing patches. Finally Maneesh can rest...
- add a "driver" symlink in devices to make it easier to
determine what driver is bound to a specific device.
- other bugfixes.

Please pull from:
bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/linux/driver-2.6

thanks,

greg k-h

p.s. I'll send these as patches in response to this email to lkml for
those who want to see them.
