Linus Torvalds a02cd4229e f2fs-for-4.15-rc1
In this round, we introduce sysfile-based quota support which is required
 for Android by default. In addition, we allow that users are able to reserve
 some blocks in runtime to mitigate performance drops in low free space.
 
 Enhancement
 - assign proper data segments according to write_hints given by user
 - issue cache_flush on dirty devices only among multiple devices
 - exploit cp_error flag and add more faults to enhance fault injection test
 - conduct more readaheads during f2fs_readdir
 - add a range for discard commands
 
 Bug fix
 - fix zero stat->st_blocks when inline_data is set
 - drop crypto key and free stale memory pointer while evict_inode is failing
 - fix some corner cases in free space and segment management
 - fix wrong last_disk_size
 
 This series includes lots of clean-ups and code enhancement in terms of xattr
 operations, discard/flush command control. In addition, it adds versatile
 debugfs entries to monitor f2fs status.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
