Greg Kroah-Hartman b51e0ceed1 USB-serial fixes for v4.12-rc2
Here's a fix for a long-standing issue in the ftdi_sio driver that
 prevented unprivileged users from updating the low-latency flag,
 something which became apparent after a recent change that restored the
 older setting of not using low-latency mode by default.
 
 A run of sparse revealed a couple of endianness issues that are now
 fixed, and addressed is also a user-triggerable division-by-zero in
 io_ti when debugging is enabled.
 
 Finally there are some new device ids, including a simplification of how
 we deal with a couple of older Olimex JTAG adapters.
 
 All have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

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.
