Linus Torvalds 79e06c4c49 RISCV: 
- Use common KVM implementation of MMU memory caches
 
 - SBI v0.2 support for Guest
 
 - Initial KVM selftests support
 
 - Fix to avoid spurious virtual interrupts after clearing hideleg CSR
 
 - Update email address for Anup and Atish
 
 ARM:
 - Simplification of the 'vcpu first run' by integrating it into

 - Refactoring of the FP and SVE state tracking, also leading to
   a simpler state and less shared data between EL1 and EL2 in
   the nVHE case

 - New HYP unsharing mechanism, finally allowing pages to be
   unmapped from the Stage-1 EL2 page-tables
 
 - Various pKVM cleanups around refcounting and sharing
 
 - A couple of vgic fixes for bugs that would trigger once
   the vcpu xarray rework is merged, but not sooner
 
 - Add minimal support for ARMv8.7's PMU extension

   page sizes

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.
