Linus Torvalds c235698355 cxl for 6.0
- Introduce a 'struct cxl_region' object with support for provisioning
   and assembling persistent memory regions.
 
 - Introduce alloc_free_mem_region() to accompany the existing
   request_free_mem_region() as a method to allocate physical memory
   capacity out of an existing resource.
 
 - Export insert_resource_expand_to_fit() for the CXL subsystem to
   late-publish CXL platform windows in iomem_resource.
 
 - Add a polled mode PCI DOE (Data Object Exchange) driver service and
   use it in cxl_pci to retrieve the CDAT (Coherent Device Attribute
   Table).

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.
