Linus Torvalds fcf010449e kgdb patches for 4.20-rc1
Mostly clean ups although whilst Doug's was chasing down a odd
 lockdep warning he also did some work to improved debugger resilience
 when some CPUs fail to respond to the round up request.
 
 The main changes are:
 
  * Fixing a lockdep warning on architectures that cannot use an NMI for
    the round up plus related changes to make CPU round up and all CPU
    backtrace more resilient.
 
  * Constify the arch ops tables
 
  * A couple of other small clean ups
 
 Two of the three patchsets here include changes that spill over into
 arch/.  Changes in the arch space are relatively narrow in scope
 (and directly related to kgdb). Didn't get comprehensive acks but
 all impacted maintainers were Cc:ed in good time.

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.
