Here is the big staging and iio set of patches for the 5.5-rc1 release.
It's the usual huge collection of cleanup patches all over the
drivers/staging/ area, along with a new staging driver, and a bunch of
new IIO drivers as well.
Full details are in the shortlog, but all of these have been in
linux-next for a long time with no reported issues.

This patch avoids that core component modules are being unloaded
while the related configfs interface has active items in its directories.
It is needed to prevent the situation where the core module cannot
be unloaded anymore, because the reference count 'used by' indicates that
the module is still being used and the usage count cannot be decreased by
calling rmdir, as the configfs directory has already been removed.

Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs changes for 5.3-rc1
It's a lot of different patches, all across the tree due to some api
changes and lots of debugfs cleanups. Because of this, there is going
to be some merge issues with your tree at the moment, I'll follow up
with the expected resolutions to make it easier for you.
Other than the debugfs cleanups, in this set of changes we have:
- bus iteration function cleanups (will cause build warnings
with s390 and coresight drivers in your tree)
- scripts/get_abi.pl tool to display and parse Documentation/ABI
entries in a simple way
- cleanups to Documenatation/ABI/ entries to make them parse
easier due to typos and other minor things
- default_attrs use for some ktype users
- driver model documentation file conversions to .rst
- compressed firmware file loading
- deferred probe fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with a bunch of merge
issues that Stephen has been patient with me for. Other than the merge
issues, functionality is working properly in linux-next :)
