Linus Torvalds 62453a460a powerpc fixes for 5.15 #2
Fix crashes when scv (System Call Vectored) is used to make a syscall when a transaction
 is active, on Power9 or later.
 
 Fix bad interactions between rfscv (Return-from scv) and Power9 fake-suspend mode.
 
 Fix crashes when handling machine checks in LPARs using the Hash MMU.
 
 Partly revert a recent change to our XICS interrupt controller code, which broke the
 recently added Microwatt support.
 
 Thanks to: Cédric Le Goater, Eirik Fuller, Ganesh Goudar, Gustavo Romero, Joel Stanley,
 Nicholas Piggin.

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.
