linux-next: manual merge of the driver-core tree with the net-next tree

[Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

Today's linux-next merge of the driver-core tree got a conflict in:

  fs/sysfs/group.c

between commit:

  5f81880d5204 ("sysfs, kobject: allow creating kobject belonging to arbitrary users")

from the net-next tree and commit:

  c855cf2759d2 ("sysfs: Fix internal_create_group() for named group updates")

from the driver-core tree.

I fixed it up (I think - see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any
non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer
when your tree is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider
cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any
particularly complex conflicts.
