Linus Torvalds b5374396e5 modules-5.19-rc7
Although most of the move of code in in v5.19-rc1 should have not
 introduced a regression patch review on one of the file changes captured
 a checkpatch warning which advised to use strscpy() and it caused a
 buffer overflow when an incorrect length is passed.
 
 Another change which checkpatch complained about was an odd RCU usage,
 but that was properly addressed in a separate patch to the move by Aaron.
 That caused a regression with PREEMPT_RT=y due to an unbounded latency.
 
 This series fixes both and adjusts documentation which we forgot to do
 for the move.

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.
