Linus Torvalds 249f1efd8e TTY/Serial fixes for 4.12-rc3
Here are some serial and tty fixes for 4.12-rc3.  They are a bit
 "bigger" than normal, which is why I had them "bake" in linux-next for a
 few weeks and didn't send them to you for -rc2.
 
 They revert a few of the serdev patches from 4.12-rc1, and bring things
 back to how they were in 4.11, to try to make things a bit more stable
 there.  Rob and Johan both agree that this is the way forward, so this
 isn't people squabbling over semantics.  Other than that, just a few
 minor serial driver fixes that people have had problems with.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a few weeks with no reported
 issues.

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.
