Here is the set of changes for the driver core for 5.17-rc1.
Lots of little things here, including:
- kobj_type cleanups
- auxiliary_bus documentation updates
- auxiliary_device conversions for some drivers (relevant
subsystems all have provided acks for these)
- kernfs lock contention reduction for some workloads
- other tiny cleanups and changes.
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.
