Linus Torvalds e37a07e0c2 Second batch of KVM updates for v4.13
Common:
  - add uevents for VM creation/destruction
  - annotate and properly access RCU-protected objects
 
 s390:
  - rename IOCTL added in the first v4.13 merge
 
 x86:
  - emulate VMLOAD VMSAVE feature in SVM
  - support paravirtual asynchronous page fault while nested
  - add Hyper-V userspace interfaces for better migration
  - improve master clock corner cases
  - extend internal error reporting after EPT misconfig
  - correct single-stepping of emulated instructions in SVM
  - handle MCE during VM entry
  - fix nVMX VM entry checks and nVMX VMCS shadowing

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.
