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.

driver core: Simplify async probe test code by using ktime_ms_delta()
nilfs2: use default_groups in kobj_type
kobject: remove kset from struct kset_uevent_ops callbacks

driver core: platform: document registration-failure requirement

...
Since commit aa30f47cf6 ("kobject: Add support for default attribute
groups to kobj_type") we have been encouraging the use of default_groups
instead of default_attrs, so reflect that information in the
documentation as well so that no new users get added while the kernel is
converted over to not use this field anymore.

There is no need to pass the pointer to the kset in the struct
kset_uevent_ops callbacks as no one uses it, so just remove that pointer
entirely.

flush_kernel_dcache_page is a rather confusing interface that implements a
subset of flush_dcache_page by not being able to properly handle page
cache mapped pages.
The only callers left are in the exec code as all other previous callers
were incorrect as they could have dealt with page cache pages. Replace
the calls to flush_kernel_dcache_page with calls to flush_dcache_page,
which for all architectures does either exactly the same thing, can
contains one or more of the following:
1) an optimization to defer the cache flush for page cache pages not
mapped into userspace
2) additional flushing for mapped page cache pages if cache aliases
are possible
