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.

The GPMC driver has traditionally been considered a part of the
OMAP platform code and tightly interweaved with some of the boards.
With this cleanup, it has finally come to the point where it makes
sense to move it out of arch/arm into drivers/memory, where we already
have other drivers for similar hardware. The cleanups are still
ongoing, with the goal of eventually having a standalone driver
that does not require an interface to architecture code.
This is a separate branch because of dependencies on multiple other
branches, and to keep the drivers changes separate from the normal
cleanups.

memory: gpmc: Move omap gpmc code to live under drivers
ARM: OMAP2+: Move GPMC initcall to devices.c
ARM: OMAP2+: Prepare to move GPMC to drivers by platform data header
ARM: OMAP2+: Remove unnecesary include in GPMC driver
ARM: OMAP2+: Drop board file for 3430sdp
ARM: OMAP2+: Drop board file for ti8168evm
ARM: OMAP2+: Drop legacy code for gpmc-smc91x.c
ARM: OMAP2+: Require proper GPMC timings for devices
ARM: OMAP2+: Show bootloader GPMC timings to allow configuring the .dts file

Just move to drivers as further clean-up can now happen there
finally.
Let's also add Roger and me to the MAINTAINERS so we get
notified for any patches related to GPMC.
