Merge tag 'driver-core-4.10-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core fix from Greg KH: "Here is a single patch being reverted to remove a feature that was added in 4.10-rc1 that isn't quite ready for release. It will be redone as a debugfs file instead of a sysfs file in the future" * tag 'driver-core-4.10-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: Revert "driver core: Add deferred_probe attribute to devices in sysfs"

-What: /sys/devices/.../deferred_probe
-Date: August 2016
-Contact: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk>
-Description:
- The /sys/devices/.../deferred_probe attribute is
- present for all devices. If a driver detects during
- probing a device that a related device is not yet
- ready, it may defer probing of the first device. The
- kernel will retry probing the first device after any
- other device is successfully probed. This attribute
- reads as 1 if probing of this device is currently
- deferred, or 0 otherwise.
