Merge tag 'driver-core-3.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core patches from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here is the big driver core merge for 3.9-rc1

  There are two major series here, both of which touch lots of drivers
  all over the kernel, and will cause you some merge conflicts:

   - add a new function called devm_ioremap_resource() to properly be
     able to check return values.

   - remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

  Other than those patches, there's not much here, some minor fixes and
  updates"

Fix up trivial conflicts

-          Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network
-          drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state
-          of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of
-          testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually
-          known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is
-          currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage
-          uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to
-          avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active
-          testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it
-          may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work
-          in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar
-          with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers
-          (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents
-          <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>,
-          <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and
-          <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source).

-          This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are
-          drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are
-          scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release.
-
-          Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that
-          falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires
-          using these features, you should probably say N here, which will
-          cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If
-          you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or
-          drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase.
