Here are some driver core patches for 2.6.19

They contain:
- driver core rework to allow code to move over to using 'struct
device' instead of 'struct class_device'. This also entails
full backward compatibility for distros that are using older
versions of udev.
- the conversion of a number of subsystems to use 'struct
device' (note, the network conversion patches are on hold
until some ieee1394 changes get made, which are still in my
queue. That patch will remain in -mm until that happens.)
- changes in the driver core that are needed by the PPC
developers to handle their open-firmware based systems.
- documentation update for platform devices.
- other minor cleanups and fixes.

All of these patches have been in the -mm tree for a quite a while.

Please pull from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-2.6.git/
or if master.kernel.org hasn't synced up yet:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-2.6.git/

Patches will be sent as a follow-on to this message to lkml for people
to see.

thanks,

greg k-h
