Linus Torvalds aac5925b49 Two fixes for resulting from CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE=y experiments:
* The first one completes a previous fix to reset a local structure
 containing scanned system data properly so that the driver rescans, as
 it should, on a second load.
 
 * The second one addresses a refcount underflow due to not paying
 attention to the driver whitelest on unregister.

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.
