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

+FunctionFS Descriptors
+======================
+
+Some of the descriptors that can be written to the FFS gadget are
+described below. Device and configuration descriptors are handled
+by the composite gadget and are not written by the user to the
+FFS gadget.
+
+Descriptors are written to the "ep0" file in the FFS gadget
+following the descriptor header.

+
+Interface Descriptors
+---------------------
+
+Standard USB interface descriptors may be written. The class/subclass of the
+most recent interface descriptor determines what type of class-specific
+descriptors are accepted.
+
+Class-Specific Descriptors
+--------------------------
+
+Class-specific descriptors are accepted only for the class/subclass of the
+most recent interface descriptor. The following are some of the
+class-specific descriptors that are supported.
+
+DFU Functional Descriptor
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When the interface class is USB_CLASS_APP_SPEC and the interface subclass
+is USB_SUBCLASS_DFU, a DFU functional descriptor can be provided.
+The DFU functional descriptor is a described in the USB specification for
+Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU), version 1.1 as of this writing.
