Merge tag 'mips_4.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jhogan/mips
Pull MIPS updates from James Hogan:
"Here's the main MIPS pull request for 4.11.
It contains a few new features such as IRQ stacks, cacheinfo support,
and KASLR for Octeon CPUs, and a variety of smaller improvements and
fixes including devicetree additions, kexec cleanups, microMIPS stack
unwinding fixes, and a bunch of build fixes to clean up continuous
integration builds.
Its all been in linux-next for at least a couple of days, most of it
far longer.

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.
