Merge tag 'driver-core-4.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here are the "big" driver core patches for 4.9-rc1. Also in here are a number of debugfs fixes that cropped up due to the changes that happened in 4.8 for that filesystem. Overall, nothing major, just a few fixes and cleanups. All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-4.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (23 commits) drivers: dma-coherent: Move spinlock in dma_alloc_from_coherent() drivers: dma-coherent: Fix DMA coherent size for less than page MAINTAINERS: extend firmware_class maintainer list debugfs: propagate release() call result driver-core: platform: Catch errors from calls to irq_get_irq_data sysfs print name of undiscoverable attribute group carl9170: fix debugfs crashes b43legacy: fix debugfs crash b43: fix debugfs crash debugfs: introduce a public file_operations accessor device core: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue drivers/base dmam_declare_coherent_memory leaks platform: don't return 0 from platform_get_irq[_byname]() on error cpu: clean up register_cpu func dma-mapping: use vma_pages(). drivers: dma-coherent: use vma_pages(). attribute_container: Fix typo base: soc: make it explicitly non-modular drivers: base: dma-mapping: page align the size when unmap_kernel_range platform driver: fix use-after-free in platform_device_del() ...
