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.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
