Linus Torvalds 8363e795eb A first set of urgent fixes to the FPU/XSTATE handling mess^W code.
(There's a lot more in the pipe):
 
 - Prevent corruption of the XSTATE buffer in signal handling by
   validating what is being copied from userspace first.
 
 - Invalidate other task's preserved FPU registers on XRSTOR failure
   (#PF) because latter can still modify some of them.
 
 - Restore the proper PKRU value in case userspace modified it
 
 - Reset FPU state when signal restoring fails
 
 Other:
 
 - Map EFI boot services data memory as encrypted in a SEV guest so that
   the guest can access it and actually boot properly
 
 - Two SGX correctness fixes: proper resources freeing and a NUMA fix

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.
