Linus Torvalds 7de7ac8d60 - Fix how SEV handles MMIO accesses by forwarding potential page faults instead
of killing the machine and by using the accessors with the exact functionality
 needed when accessing memory.
 
 - Fix a confusion with Clang LTO compiler switches passed to the it
 
 - Handle the case gracefully when VMGEXIT has been executed in userspace

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.
