* 'driver-core-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6: (44 commits)
  debugfs: Silence DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS=y warning
  sysfs: remove "last sysfs file:" line from the oops messages
  drivers/base/memory.c: fix warning due to "memory hotplug: Speed up add/remove when blocks are larger than PAGES_PER_SECTION"
  memory hotplug: Speed up add/remove when blocks are larger than PAGES_PER_SECTION
  SYSFS: Fix erroneous comments for sysfs_update_group().
  driver core: remove the driver-model structures from the documentation
  driver core: Add the device driver-model structures to kerneldoc
  Translated Documentation/email-clients.txt
  RAW driver: Remove call to kobject_put().
  reboot: disable usermodehelper to prevent fs access
  efivars: prevent oops on unload when efi is not enabled
  Allow setting of number of raw devices as a module parameter
  Introduce CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE
  driver: Google Memory Console
  driver: Google EFI SMI
  x86: Better comments for get_bios_ebda()
  x86: get_bios_ebda_length()
  misc: fix ti-st build issues
  params.c: Use new strtobool function to process boolean inputs
  debugfs: move to new strtobool
  ...

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/debugfs/file.c due to the same patch
being applied twice, and an unrelated cleanup nearby.
