Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just
removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by
the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while.

topology: replace custom attribute macros with standard DEVICE_ATTR*
cpumask: factor out show_cpumap into separate helper function

driver core: fix race with userland in device_add()
sysfs/kernfs: make read requests on pre-alloc files use the buffer.
sysfs/kernfs: allow attributes to request write buffer be pre-allocated.
fs: sysfs: return EGBIG on write if offset is larger than file size
...
Convert all uses of devm_request_and_ioremap() to the newly introduced
devm_ioremap_resource() which provides more consistent error handling.
devm_ioremap_resource() provides its own error messages so all explicit
error messages can be removed from the failure code paths.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option so __devinit is no longer

The driver was using a 16 bit field for storing the shadow value of the shift
register cascade. This resulted in only the first 2 shift registeres receiving
the correct data. The third shift register would always receive 0x00.
Fix this by using a 32bit field for the shadow value.

Implements OF support and add code to load custom properties from the DT.
The Serial To Parallel (STP) is found on MIPS based Lantiq socs. It is a
peripheral controller used to drive external shift register cascades. At most
3 groups of 8 bits can be driven. The hardware is able to allow the DSL modem
to drive the 2 LSBs of the cascade automatically. Newer socs are also able to
automatically drive some pins via the internal PHYs. The driver currently only
supports output functionality. Patches for the input feature found on newer
generations of the soc will be provided in a later series.

Move the 2 drivers from arch/mips/lantiq/xway/ to the subsystem and make them
buildable.
The following 2 patches will convert the drivers to OF.
