Linus Torvalds 3664ce2d93 powerpc fixes for 4.16 #4
Add handling for a missing instruction in our 32-bit BPF JIT so that it can be
 used for seccomp filtering.
 
 Add a missing NULL pointer check before a function call in new EEH code.
 
 Fix an error path in the new ocxl driver to correctly return EFAULT.
 
 The support for the new ibm,drc-info device tree property turns out to need
 several fixes, so for now we just stop advertising to firmware that we support
 it until the bugs can be ironed out.
 
 One fix for the new drmem code which was incorrectly modifying the device tree
 in place.
 
 Finally two fixes for the RFI flush support, so that firmware can advertise to
 us that it should be disabled entirely so as not to affect performance.
 
 Thanks to:
   Bharata B Rao, Frederic Barrat, Juan J. Alvarez, Mark Lord, Michael Bringmann.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
