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
If you need me to provide a merged tree to handle these resolutions,
please let me know.
Other than those patches, there's not much here, some minor fixes and
updates.

The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier
with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2bc
("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012.
More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a
fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit
7be6065b39 ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of
netdev->priv"). So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been
used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail
report of breakage for at least 4 years.
This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going
after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline
files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver
deletion commit tied into their history.
Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx
drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.
This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from the kernel documentation.
Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

Some of the documentation refers to web pages under
the domain `osdl.org'. However, `osdl.org' now
redirects to `linuxfoundation.org'.
Rather than rely on redirections, this patch updates
the addresses appropriately; for the most part, only
documentation that is meant to be current has been
updated.
The patch should be pretty quick to scan and check;
each new web-page url was gotten by trying out the
original URL in a browser and then simply copying the
the redirected URL (formatting as necessary).
There is some conflict as to which one of these domain
names is preferred:
linuxfoundation.org
linux-foundation.org
So, I wrote:
info@linuxfoundation.org
and got this reply:
Message-ID: <4CE17EE6.9040807@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2010 10:41:42 -0800
From: David Ames <david@linuxfoundation.org>
...
linuxfoundation.org is preferred. The canonical name for our web site is
www.linuxfoundation.org. Our list site is actually
lists.linux-foundation.org.
Regarding email linuxfoundation.org is preferred there are a few people
who choose to use linux-foundation.org for their own reasons.
Consequently, I used `linuxfoundation.org' for web pages and
`lists.linux-foundation.org' for mailing-list web pages and email addresses;
the only personal email address I updated from `@osdl.org' was that of
Andrew Morton, who prefers `linux-foundation.org' according `git log'.

Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.
