Merge tag 'char-misc-5.2-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc
Pull char/misc driver fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some small char and misc driver fixes for 5.2-rc4 to resolve
a number of reported issues.
The most "notable" one here is the kernel headers in proc^Wsysfs
fixes. Those changes move the header file info into sysfs and fixes
the build issues that you reported.
Other than that, a bunch of small habanalabs driver fixes, some fpga
driver fixes, and a few other tiny driver fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"
