Linus Torvalds 16477cdfef asm-generic changes for 5.19
The asm-generic tree contains three separate changes for linux-5.19:
 
 - The h8300 architecture is retired after it has been effectively
   unmaintained for a number of years. This is the last architecture we
   supported that has no MMU implementation, but there are still a few
   architectures (arm, m68k, riscv, sh and xtensa) that support CPUs with
   and without an MMU.
 
 - A series to add a generic ticket spinlock that can be shared by most
   architectures with a working cmpxchg or ll/sc type atomic, including
   the conversion of riscv, csky and openrisc. This series is also a
   prerequisite for the loongarch64 architecture port that will come as
   a separate pull request.
 
 - A cleanup of some exported uapi header files to ensure they can be
   included from user space without relying on other kernel headers.

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.
