Merge tag 'driver-core-5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "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"
