Linus Torvalds d710d370c4 s390 updates for the 5.18 merge window
- Raise minimum supported machine generation to z10, which comes with
   various cleanups and code simplifications (usercopy/spectre
   mitigation/etc).
 
 - Rework extables and get rid of anonymous out-of-line fixups.
 
 - Page table helpers cleanup. Add set_pXd()/set_pte() helper
   functions. Covert pte_val()/pXd_val() macros to functions.
 
 - Optimize kretprobe handling by avoiding extra kprobe on
   __kretprobe_trampoline.
 
 - Add support for CEX8 crypto cards.
 
 - Allow to trigger AP bus rescan via writing to /sys/bus/ap/scans.
 
 - Add CONFIG_EXPOLINE_EXTERN option to build the kernel without COMDAT
   group sections which simplifies kpatch support.
 
 - Always use the packed stack layout and extend kernel unwinder tests.
 
 - Add sanity checks for ftrace code patching.
 
 - Add s390dbf debug log for the vfio_ap device driver.
 
 - Various virtual vs physical address confusion fixes.
 
 - Various small fixes and improvements all over the code.

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.
