Linus Torvalds 0b3acd1cc0 Driver core fixes for 6.0-rc4
Here are some small driver core fixes for some oft-reported problems in
 6.0-rc1.  They include:
   - a bunch of reverts to handle driver_deferred_probe_check_state()
     problems that were part of the 6.0-rc1 merge.
   - firmware_loader bugfixes now that the code is being properly tested
     and used by others
   - arch_topology fix
   - deferred driver probe bugfix to solve a long-suffering amba bus
     problem that many people have reported.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 problems.

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.
