Core code:
- Make the NOHZ handling of the timekeeping/tick core more robust to
prevent a rare jiffies update stall.
- Handle softirqs in the NOHZ/idle case correctly
Drivers:
- Add support for event stream scaling of the 1GHz counter on ARM(64)
- Correct an error code check in the timer-of layer
- The usual cleanups and improvements all over the place

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.
