Here is the "big" driver core update for 4.14-rc1.
It's really not all that big, the largest thing here being some firmware
tests to help ensure that that crazy api is working properly.
There's also a new uevent for when a driver is bound or unbound from a
device, fixing a hole in the driver model that's been there since the
very beginning. Many thanks to Dmitry for being persistent and pointing
out how wrong I was about this all along :)
Patches for the new uevents are already in the systemd tree, if people
want to play around with them.
Otherwise just a number of other small api changes and updates here,
nothing major. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a
while with no reported issues.
