  driver core: Fix device link deferred probe (2017-11-08 13:50:17 +0100)

Driver core patches for 4.15-rc1

Here is the set of driver core / debugfs patches for 4.15-rc1.

Not many here, mostly all are debugfs fixes to resolve some
long-reported problems with files going away with references to them in
userspace.  There's also some SPDX cleanups for the debugfs code, as
well as a few other minor driver core changes for issues reported by
people.

All of these have been in linux-next for a week or more with no reported
issues.
