Linus Torvalds 2a668d2176 kgdb patches for 6.8
The entire changeset for kgdb this cycle is a single two-line change to
 remove some deadcode that, had it not been dead, would have called
 strncpy() in an unsafe manner.
 
 To be fair there were other modest clean ups were discussed this cycle
 but they are not finalized and will have to wait until next time.

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.
