Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-coregrafted
Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:
- Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g.
SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs
- Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI
abstractions
- Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is
disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality
- Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware
Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS
entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly
* tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader
CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload
firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes
rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32
kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs
drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF
