Linus Torvalds 1342316648 Staging driver fixes and removal for 6.3-rc2
Here are 4 small staging driver fixes, and one big staging driver
 deletion for 6.3-rc2.
 
 The fixes are:
   - rtl8192e driver fixes for where the driver was attempting to execute
     various programs directly from the disk for unknown reasons
   - rtl8723bs driver fixes for issues found by Hans in testing
 
 The deleted driver is the removal of the r8188eu wireless driver as now
 in 6.3-rc1 we have a "real" wifi driver for one that includes support
 for many many more devices than this old driver did.  So it's time to
 remove it as it is no longer needed.  The maintainers of this driver all
 have acked its removal.  Many thanks to them over the years for working
 to clean it up and keep it working while the real driver was being
 developed.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
 problems.

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.
