Linus Torvalds 6a0e20cd8c First set of RISC-V updates for v5.5-rc1
New features:
 
 - SECCOMP support
 
 - nommu support
 
 - SBI-less system support
 
 - M-Mode support
 
 - TLB flush optimizations
 
 Other improvements:
 
 - Pass the complete RISC-V ISA string supported by the CPU cores to
   userspace, rather than redacting parts of it in the kernel
 
 - Add platform DMA IP block data to the HiFive Unleashed board DT file
 
 - Add Makefile support for BZ2, LZ4, LZMA, LZO kernel image
   compression formats, in line with other architectures
 
 Cleanups:
 
 - Remove unnecessary PTE_PARENT_SIZE macro
 
 - Standardize include guard naming across arch/riscv

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.
