Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-2.6

This can be broken down into these major areas:
- Documentation updates (language translations and fixes, as
well as kobject and kset documenatation updates.)
- major kset/kobject/ktype rework and fixes. This cleans up the
kset and kobject and ktype relationship and architecture,
making sense of things now, and good documenation and samples
are provided for others to use. Also the attributes for
kobjects are much easier to handle now. This cleaned up a LOT
of code all through the kernel, making kobjects easier to use
if you want to.
- struct bus_type has been reworked to now handle the lifetime
rules properly, as the kobject is properly dynamic.
- struct driver has also been reworked, and now the lifetime
issues are resolved.
- the block subsystem has been converted to use struct device
now, and not "raw" kobjects. This patch has been in the -mm
tree for over a year now, and finally all the issues are
worked out with it. Older distros now properly work with new
kernels, and no userspace updates are needed at all.
- nozomi driver is added. This has also been in -mm for a long
time, and many people have asked for it to go in. It is now
in good enough shape to do so.
- lots of class_device conversions to use struct device instead.
The tree is almost all cleaned up now, only SCSI and IB is the
remaining code to fix up...

kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct kset

We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this
explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we
can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented
assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.

This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.

sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.
