    Merge tag 'driver-core-4.17-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" set of driver core patches for 4.17-rc1.
    
      There's really not much here, just a bunch of firmware code
      refactoring from Luis as he attempts to wrangle that codebase into
      something that is managable, along with a bunch of userspace tests for
      it. Other than that, a handful of small bugfixes and reverts of things
      that didn't work out.
    
      Full details are in the shortlog, it's not all that much.
    
      All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
      issues"
