Merge tag 'driver-core-5.15-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are some small driver core fixes for 5.15-rc6, all of which have
  been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

  They include:

   - kernfs negative dentry bugfix

   - simple pm bus fixes to resolve reported issues"

* tag 'driver-core-5.15-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core:
  drivers: bus: Delete CONFIG_SIMPLE_PM_BUS
  drivers: bus: simple-pm-bus: Add support for probing simple bus only devices
  driver core: Reject pointless SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links
  kernfs: don't create a negative dentry if inactive node exists
