Merge tag 'driver-core-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the big driver core merge for 3.11-rc1

  Lots of little things, and larger firmware subsystem updates, all
  described in the shortlog.  Nice thing here is that we finally get rid
  of CONFIG_HOTPLUG, after 10+ years, thanks to Stephen Rohtwell (it had
  been always on for a number of kernel releases, now it's just
  removed)"

KERNEL HOTPLUG HELPER (/sbin/hotplug)
When you compile with CONFIG_HOTPLUG, you get a new kernel parameter:
/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug, which normally holds the pathname "/sbin/hotplug".
That parameter names a program which the kernel may invoke at various times.
There is a kernel parameter: /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug, which normally
holds the pathname "/sbin/hotplug". That parameter names a program
which the kernel may invoke at various times.
The /sbin/hotplug program can be invoked by any subsystem as part of its
reaction to a configuration change, from a thread in that subsystem.
