Pull device properties framework updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These introduce fwnode operations for all of the separate types of
'firmware nodes' that can be handled by the device properties
framework, make the framework use const fwnode arguments all over, add
a helper for the consolidated handling of node references and switch
over the framework to the new UUID API.
Specifics:
- Introduce fwnode operations for all of the separate types of
'firmware nodes' that can be handled by the device properties
framework and drop the type field from struct fwnode_handle (Sakari
Ailus, Arnd Bergmann).
- Make the device properties framework use const fwnode arguments
where possible (Sakari Ailus).
- Add a helper for the consolidated handling of node references to
the device properties framework (Sakari Ailus).
- Switch over the ACPI part of the device properties framework to the
new UUID API (Andy Shevchenko)"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
