Linus Torvalds 1214917e00 More EFI fixes for v5.10-rc:
- revert efivarfs kmemleak fix again - it was a false positive;
 - make CONFIG_EFI_EARLYCON depend on CONFIG_EFI explicitly so it does not
   pull in other dependencies unnecessarily if CONFIG_EFI is not set
 - defer attempts to load SSDT overrides from EFI vars until after the
   efivar layer is up.

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.
