Linus Torvalds 3b347e4032 Tracing fixes for v6.6-rc3:
- Make sure 32 bit applications using user events have aligned access when
   running on a 64 bit kernel.
 
 - Add cond_resched in the loop that handles converting enums in print_fmt
   string is trace events.
 
 - Fix premature wake ups of polling processes in the tracing ring buffer. When
   a task polls waiting for a percentage of the ring buffer to be filled, the
   writer still will wake it up at every event. Add the polling's percentage to
   the "shortest_full" list to tell the writer when to wake it up.
 
 - For eventfs dir lookups on dynamic events, an event system's only event could
   be removed, leaving its dentry with no children. This is totally legitimate.
   But in eventfs_release() it must not access the children array, as it is only
   allocated when the dentry has children.

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.
