Linus Torvalds 46e0d28bdb Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main scheduler changes in this cycle were:

   - NUMA balancing improvements (Mel Gorman)

   - Further load tracking improvements (Patrick Bellasi)

   - Various NOHZ balancing cleanups and optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)

   - Improve blocked load handling, in particular we can now reduce and
     eventually stop periodic load updates on 'very idle' CPUs. (Vincent
     Guittot)

   - On isolated CPUs offload the final 1Hz scheduler tick as well, plus
     related cleanups and reorganization. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Core scheduler code cleanups (Ingo Molnar)"

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.
