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

Hi Greg,

Today's linux-next merge of the driver-core tree got a conflict in
drivers/base/driver.c between commit fcd6f7620202 ("driver-core: remove
legacy iSeries hack") from the powerpc tree and commit 9875bb480cc8
("Eliminate get_driver() and put_driver()") from the driver-core tree.

Just context changes.  I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as
necessary.
