Linus Torvalds 7ae123edd3 ACPI CPPC fixes for v4.10-rc1
- Fix a crash in KVM encountered in linux-next and introduced by
    a recent intel_pstate change that caused the driver to use the
    ACPI CPPC code and uncovered a missing NULL pointer check in
    it (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).
 
  - Fix a possible use-after-free in the same code area (Rafael Wysocki).

Pull two ACPI CPPC fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "One of them fixes a crash in KVM encountered by Sebastian in
  linux-next and introduced by a recent intel_pstate change that caused
  the driver to use the ACPI CPPC code and uncovered a missing NULL
  pointer check in it.

  The other one fixes a possible use-after-free in the same code area.

  Summary:

   - Fix a crash in KVM encountered in linux-next and introduced by a
     recent intel_pstate change that caused the driver to use the ACPI
     CPPC code and uncovered a missing NULL pointer check in it
     (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).

   - Fix a possible use-after-free in the same code area (Rafael
     Wysocki)"

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.
