The most notable change is the removal of the amd_energy driver. It was
rendered all but unusable by making its attributes privileged-only to work
around a security issue. A suggested remedy was rejected by AMD, so the
only real solution was to remove the driver. For the future, we'll have
to make sure that no privileged-access-only drivers are accepted into the
hwmon subsystem in the first place. The hwmon ABI document was updated
accordingly.
Other changes:
PMBus drivers:
- Added driver for MAX15301
- Added driver for BluTek BPA-RS600
- Added driver for fsp-3y PSUs and PDUs
- Added driver for Infineon IR36021
- Added driver for ST STPDDC60
- Added support for TI TPS53676 to tps53679 driver
- Introduced PMBUS symbol namespace
This was made necessary by a suggestion to use its exported functions
from outside the hwmon subsystem.
- Minor improvements and bug fixes
New drivers:
- Driver for NZXT Kraken X42/X52/X62/X72
Driver enhancements:
- Added support for Intel D5005 to intel-m10-bmc-hwmon driver
- Added support for NCT6686D to nct6683 driver
Other:
- Converted sch5627 and amd9240 drivers to hwmon_device_register_with_info()
- Added support for fan drawers capability and present registers to mlxreg-fan
driver
- Added Dell Latitude E7440 to fan control whitelist in dell-smm driver
- Replaced snprintf in show functions with sysfs_emit
Done with coccinelle script for all drivers to preempt endless per-driver
submissions of the same change.
- Use kobj_to_dev()
Another coccinelle based change to preempt endless per-driver submissions
of the same change.
- Various minor fixes and improvements

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.
