Linus Torvalds 20a7b6be05 Driver core fixes for 5.9-rc5
Here are some small driver core and debugfs fixes for 5.9-rc5
 
 Included in here are:
 	- firmware loader memory leak fix
 	- firmware loader testing fixes for non-EFI systems
 	- device link locking fixes found by lockdep
 	- kobject_del() bugfix that has been affecting some callers
 	- debugfs minor fix
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
