- Do not do ROM range scans and memory validation when the kernel is
running as a SEV-SNP guest as those can get problematic and, before
that, are not really needed in such a guest
- Exclude the build-time generated vdso-image-x32.o object from objtool
validation and in particular the return sites in there due to
a warning which fires when an unpatched return thunk is being used
- Improve the NMI CPUs stall message to show additional information
about the state of each CPU wrt the NMI handler
- Enable gcc named address spaces support only on !KCSAN configs due to
compiler options incompatibility
- Revert a change which was trying to use GB pages for mapping regions
only when the regions would be large enough but that change lead to
kexec failing
- A documentation fixlet

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 reStructuredText 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.
