Linus Torvalds 2f64e70cd0 Second pull request for 4.16-rc
- Various driver bug fixes in mlx5, mlx4, bnxt_re and qedr, ranging
   from bugs under load to bad error case handling
 - There in one largish patch fixing the locking in bnxt_re to avoid
   a machine hard lock situation
 - A few core bugs on error paths
 - A patch to reduce stack usage in the new CQ API
 - One mlx5 regression introduced in this merge window
 - There were new syzkaller scripts written for the RDMA subsystem
   and we are fixing issues found by the bot
 - One of the commits (aa0de36a40 “RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow
   while resizing CQ”) is missing part of the commit log message and
   one of the SOB lines.  The original patch was from Leon Romanovsky,
   and a cut-n-paste separator in the commit message confused patchworks
   which then put the end of message separator in the wrong place in
   the downloaded patch, and I didn’t notice in time.  The patch made
   it into the official branch, and the only way to fix it in-place
   was to rebase.  Given the pain that a rebase causes, and the fact
   that the patch has relevant tags for stable and syzkaller, a revert
   of the munged patch and a reapplication of the original patch with
   the log message intact was done.

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.
