Linus Torvalds f40f31cadc f2fs-for-5.7-rc1
In this round, we've mainly focused on fixing bugs and addressing issues in
 recently introduced compression support.
 
 Enhancement:
 - add zstd support, and set LZ4 by default
 - add ioctl() to show # of compressed blocks
 - show mount time in debugfs
 - replace rwsem with spinlock
 - avoid lock contention in DIO reads
 
 Some major bug fixes wrt compression:
 - compressed block count
 - memory access and leak
 - remove obsolete fields
 - flag controls
 
 Other bug fixes and clean ups:
 - fix overflow when handling .flags in inode_info
 - fix SPO issue during resize FS flow
 - fix compression with fsverity enabled
 - potential deadlock when writing compressed pages
 - show missing mount options

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.
