Merge tag 'driver-core-3.5-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver Core fixes from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here is a number of printk() fixes, specifically a few reported by the
  crazy blog program that ships in SUSE releases (that's "boot log" and
  not "web log", it predates the general "blog" terminology by many
  years), and the restoration of the continuation line functionality
  reported by Stephen and others.  Yes, the changes seem a bit big this
  late in the cycle, but I've been beating on them for a while now, and
  Stephen has even optimized it a bit, so all looks good to me.

  The other change in here is a Documentation update for the stable
  kernel rules describing how some distro patches should be backported,
  to hopefully drive a bit more response from the distros to the stable
  kernel releases.
