Linus Torvalds b9743042b3 Driver core patches for 4.15-rc1
Here is the set of driver core / debugfs patches for 4.15-rc1.
 
 Not many here, mostly all are debugfs fixes to resolve some
 long-reported problems with files going away with references to them in
 userspace.  There's also some SPDX cleanups for the debugfs code, as
 well as a few other minor driver core changes for issues reported by
 people.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a week or more 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.
