Merge tag 'driver-core-5.18-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here are two small driver core changes for 5.18-rc2. They are the final bits in the removal of the default_attrs field in struct kobj_type. I had to wait until after 5.18-rc1 for all of the changes to do this came in through different development trees, and then one new user snuck in. So this series has two changes: - removal of the default_attrs field in the powerpc/pseries/vas code. The change has been acked by the PPC maintainers to come through this tree - removal of default_attrs from struct kobj_type now that all in-kernel users are removed. This cleans up the kobject code a little bit and removes some duplicated functionality that confused people (now there is only one way to do default groups) Both of these have been in linux-next for all of this week with no reported problems" * tag 'driver-core-5.18-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: kobject: kobj_type: remove default_attrs powerpc/pseries/vas: use default_groups in kobj_type
