Merge tag 'driver-core-5.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the set of driver core changes for 5.19-rc1.

  Lots of tiny driver core changes and cleanups happened this cycle, but
  the two major things are:

   - firmware_loader reorganization and additions including the ability
     to have XZ compressed firmware images and the ability for userspace
     to initiate the firmware load when it needs to, instead of being
     always initiated by the kernel. FPGA devices specifically want this
     ability to have their firmware changed over the lifetime of the
     system boot, and this allows them to work without having to come up
     with yet-another-custom-uapi interface for loading firmware for
     them.

   - physical location support added to sysfs so that devices that know
     this information, can tell userspace where they are located in a
     common way. Some ACPI devices already support this today, and more
     bus types should support this in the future.

  Smaller changes include:

   - driver_override api cleanups and fixes

   - error path cleanups and fixes

   - get_abi script fixes

   - deferred probe timeout changes.

  It's that last change that I'm the most worried about. It has been
  reported to cause boot problems for a number of systems, and I have a
  tested patch series that resolves this issue. But I didn't get it
  merged into my tree before 5.18-final came out, so it has not gotten
  any linux-next testing.

  I'll send the fixup patches (there are 2) as a follow-on series to this
  pull request.

  All have been tested in linux-next for weeks, with no reported issues
  other than the above-mentioned boot time-outs"
