Mark Rutland 9d1b972f8a vringh: kill off ACCESS_ONCE()
Despite living under drivers/ vringh.c is also used as part of the userspace
virtio tools. Before we can kill off the ACCESS_ONCE()definition in the tools,
we must convert vringh.c to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE().

This patch does so, along with the required include of <linux/compiler.h> for
the relevant definitions. The userspace tools provide their own definitions in
their own <linux/compiler.h>.

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.
