Linus Torvalds 7a0d796100 Orangefs: a fix and a cleanup
fix: way back in the stone age (2003) mode was set to the magic
      number "755" in what is now fs/orangefs/namei.c(orangefs_symlink).
      Łukasz Wrochna reported it and Artur Świgoń sent in a patch to change
      it to octal. Maybe it shouldn't be a magic number at all but rather
      something like "S_IRWXU | S_IRGRP | S_IXGRP | S_IROTH | S_IXOTH"...
 
 cleanup: Colin Ian King found a redundant assignment and sent in a
          patch to remove it.

 "A fix and a cleanup.

[ And no, octal numbers for permissions are a lot more legible than a
  binary 'or' of some line noise macros. So 0755 is preferred over
  trying to spell it out using "helpful" macros     - Linus ]

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.
