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.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A couple of fixes addressing the following issues:
- The last polishing for the TLB code, removing the last BUG_ON() and
the debug file along with tidying up the lazy TLB code.
- Prevent triple fault on 1st Gen. 486 caused by stupidly calling the
early IDT setup after the first function which causes a fault which
should be caught by the exception table.
- Limit the mmap of /dev/mem to valid addresses
- Prevent late microcode loading on Broadwell X
- Remove a redundant assignment in the cache info code"
