Linus Torvalds 71ee203389 SCSI fixes on 20171230
Two simple fixes, both of which cause I/O hangs.  The storvsc one is
 from the hyper-v which can hang under certain hot add/remove
 conditions and the other is generally, where removing a target and a
 device in close proximity can result in the release method being
 executed twice (and subsequent list and other corruption and an
 eventual panic).

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.
