Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.10-rc1
They include a lot of different things, all related to the driver core
and/or some driver logic:
- sysfs common write functions to make it easier to audit sysfs
attributes
- device connection cleanups and fixes
- devm helpers for a few functions
- NOIO allocations for when devices are being removed
- minor cleanups and fixes
All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

Output defects can exist in sysfs content using sprintf and snprintf.
sprintf does not know the PAGE_SIZE maximum of the temporary buffer
used for outputting sysfs content and it's possible to overrun the
PAGE_SIZE buffer length.
Add a generic sysfs_emit function that knows that the size of the
temporary buffer and ensures that no overrun is done.
Add a generic sysfs_emit_at function that can be used in multiple
call situations that also ensures that no overrun is done.
Validate the output buffer argument to be page aligned.
Validate the offset len argument to be within the PAGE_SIZE buf.
