Linus Torvalds a99efa0089 RISC-V updates for v5.5-rc4
One important fix for RISC-V:
 
 - Redirect any incoming syscall with an ID less than -1 to
   sys_ni_syscall, rather than allowing them to fall through into the
   syscall handler.
 
 and two minor build fixes:
 
 - Export __asm_copy_{from,to}_user() from where they are defined.
   This fixes a build error triggered by some randconfigs.
 
 - Export flush_icache_all().  I'd resisted this before, since
   historically we didn't want modules to be able to flush the I$
   directly; but apparently everyone else is doing it now.

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.
