Linus Torvalds 9f2a635235 Quite a lot of kexec work this time around. Many singleton patches in
many places.  The notable patch series are:
 
 - nilfs2 folio conversion from Matthew Wilcox in "nilfs2: Folio
   conversions for file paths".
 
 - Additional nilfs2 folio conversion from Ryusuke Konishi in "nilfs2:
   Folio conversions for directory paths".
 
 - IA64 remnant removal in Heiko Carstens's "Remove unused code after
   IA-64 removal".
 
 - Arnd Bergmann has enabled the -Wmissing-prototypes warning everywhere
   in "Treewide: enable -Wmissing-prototypes".  This had some followup
   fixes:
 
   - Nathan Chancellor has cleaned up the hexagon build in the series
     "hexagon: Fix up instances of -Wmissing-prototypes".
 
   - Nathan also addressed some s390 warnings in "s390: A couple of
     fixes for -Wmissing-prototypes".
 
   - Arnd Bergmann addresses the same warnings for MIPS in his series
     "mips: address -Wmissing-prototypes warnings".
 
 - Baoquan He has made kexec_file operate in a top-down-fitting manner
   similar to kexec_load in the series "kexec_file: Load kernel at top of
   system RAM if required"
 
 - Baoquan He has also added the self-explanatory "kexec_file: print out
   debugging message if required".
 
 - Some checkstack maintenance work from Tiezhu Yang in the series
   "Modify some code about checkstack".
 
 - Douglas Anderson has disentangled the watchdog code's logging when
   multiple reports are occurring simultaneously.  The series is "watchdog:
   Better handling of concurrent lockups".
 
 - Yuntao Wang has contributed some maintenance work on the crash code in
   "crash: Some cleanups and fixes".

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.
