Linus Torvalds dce45af5c2 5.2 Merge Window pull request
This has been a smaller cycle than normal. One new driver was accepted,
 which is unusual, and at least one more driver remains in review on the
 list.
 
 - Driver fixes for hns, hfi1, nes, rxe, i40iw, mlx5, cxgb4, vmw_pvrdma
 
 - Many patches from MatthewW converting radix tree and IDR users to use
   xarray
 
 - Introduction of tracepoints to the MAD layer
 
 - Build large SGLs at the start for DMA mapping and get the driver to
   split them
 
 - Generally clean SGL handling code throughout the subsystem
 
 - Support for restricting RDMA devices to net namespaces for containers
 
 - Progress to remove object allocation boilerplate code from drivers
 
 - Change in how the mlx5 driver shows representor ports linked to VFs
 
 - mlx5 uapi feature to access the on chip SW ICM memory
 
 - Add a new driver for 'EFA'. This is HW that supports user space packet
   processing through QPs in Amazon's cloud

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.
