 Driver core fixes for 5.18-rc7
 
 Here is one fix, and 3 documentation updates for 5.18-rc7.
 
 The fix is for the firmware loader which resolves a long-reported
 problem where the credentials of the firmware loader could be set to a
 userspace process without enough permissions to actually load the
 firmware image.  Many Android vendors have been reporting this for quite
 some time.
 
 The documentation updates are for the embargoed-hardware-issues.rst file
 to add a new entry, change an existing one, and sort the list to make
 changes easier in the future.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.
