mainlining shenanigans

Linus Torvalds 1b1cf8fe99 Changes in this cycle were:
- Add the "ratelimit:N" parameter to the split_lock_detect= boot option,
    to rate-limit the generation of bus-lock exceptions. This is both
    easier on system resources and kinder to offending applications than
    the current policy of outright killing them.
 
  - Document the split-lock detection feature and its parameters.

Pull x86 splitlock updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Add the "ratelimit:N" parameter to the split_lock_detect= boot
   option, to rate-limit the generation of bus-lock exceptions.

   This is both easier on system resources and kinder to offending
   applications than the current policy of outright killing them.

 - Document the split-lock detection feature and its parameters.

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.
