Here is the big set of char/misc and a number of other driver subsystem
updates for 6.9-rc1. Included in here are:
- IIO driver updates, loads of new ones and evolution of existing ones
- coresight driver updates
- const cleanups for many driver subsystems
- speakup driver additions
- platform remove callback void cleanups
- mei driver updates
- mhi driver updates
- cdx driver updates for MSI interrupt handling
- nvmem driver updates
- other smaller driver updates and cleanups, full details in the
shortlog
All of these have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported
issue, other than a build warning with some older versions of gcc for a
speakup driver, fix for that will come in a few days when I catch up
with my pending patch queues.

The build warning hits clang and is a gcc (and C23) extension, and is
fixed up in the merge.

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 reStructuredText 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.
