Here is the big driver core updates for 5.11-rc1
This time there was a lot of different work happening here for some
reason:
- redo of the fwnode link logic, speeding it up greatly
- auxiliary bus added (this was a tag that will be pulled in
from other trees/maintainers this merge window as well, as
driver subsystems started to rely on it)
- platform driver core cleanups on the way to fixing some
long-time api updates in future releases
- minor fixes and tweaks.
All have been in linux-next with no (finally) reported issues. Testing
there did helped in shaking issues out a lot :)

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.
