Linus Torvalds fe91c4725a SCSI misc on 20211105
This series consists of the usual driver updates (ufs, smartpqi, lpfc,
 target, megaraid_sas, hisi_sas, qla2xxx) and minor updates and bug
 fixes.  Notable core changes are the removal of scsi->tag which caused
 some churn in obsolete drivers and a sweep through all drivers to call
 scsi_done() directly instead of scsi->done() which removes a pointer
 indirection from the hot path and a move to register core sysfs files
 earlier, which means they're available to KOBJ_ADD processing, which
 necessitates switching all drivers to using attribute groups.

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.
