Linus Torvalds e431f2d74e Driver core patches for 5.1-rc1
Here is the big driver core patchset for 5.1-rc1
 
 More patches than "normal" here this merge window, due to some work in
 the driver core by Alexander Duyck to rework the async probe
 functionality to work better for a number of devices, and independant
 work from Rafael for the device link functionality to make it work
 "correctly".
 
 Also in here is:
 	- lots of BUS_ATTR() removals, the macro is about to go away
 	- firmware test fixups
 	- ihex fixups and simplification
 	- component additions (also includes i915 patches)
 	- lots of minor coding style fixups and cleanups.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
