Merge tag 'driver-core-3.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core changes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here's the big driver core pull request for 3.6-rc1.

  Unlike 3.5, this kernel should be a lot tamer, with the printk changes
  now settled down.  All we have here is some extcon driver updates, w1
  driver updates, a few printk cleanups that weren't needed for 3.5, but
  are good to have now, and some other minor fixes/changes in the driver
  core.

  All of these have been in the linux-next releases for a while now.

  Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>"
