Linus Torvalds fcd98147ac stream_open related bits for Linux 5.3
- the first one converts stream_open.cocci to treat all functions that
   start with wait_.* as blocking. Previously it was only wait_event_.*
   functions that were considered as blocking, but this was falsely
   reporting several deadlock cases as only warning. The patch was
   picked by linux-kbuild and entered mainline as 0c4ab18fc3.
   It is thus omitted from hereby pull-request.
 
 - the second one teaches stream_open.cocci to consider files as being
   stream-like even if they use noop_llseek. I posted this patch for
   review 3 weeks ago[1], but got neither feedback nor complaints.

Merge tag 'stream_open-5.3' of https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/linux

Pull stream_open() updates from Kirill Smelkov:
 "This time on stream_open front it is only two small changes:

   - the first one converts stream_open.cocci to treat all functions
     that start with wait_.* as blocking. Previously it was only
     wait_event_.* functions that were considered as blocking, but this
     was falsely reporting several deadlock cases as only warning.

     This was picked by linux-kbuild and entered mainline as commit
     0c4ab18fc3 ("coccinelle: api/stream_open: treat all wait_.*()
     calls as blocking"), and already merged earlier.

   - the second one teaches stream_open.cocci to consider files as being
     stream-like even if they use noop_llseek. It results in two more
     drivers being converted to stream_open() (mousedev.c and
     hid-sensor-custom.c)"

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.
