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 mmp_unregister_path() function tests whether its argument is NULL
and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

A word was corrected in the description for a parameter of

Sparse complains about using zero instead of NULL for pointers.
Probably, if we enabled the warning, then GCC would complain about the
unused initializers. I've just removed them.
Smatch complains that we first check if "fbi" is NULL and then
dereference it in the error handling. It turns out that "fbi" can't be
NULL so I've removed the check.

References to the Kconfig symbol CPU_PXA988 were added to the tree in
v3.9. But that Kconfig symbol has never been part of the tree. So get
rid of these references.

The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related
files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev
device drivers, fbdev framework files.
Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev
directory, and move all fbdev related files there.
No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some
subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this
patch.
