Linus Torvalds 8f6f76a6a2 As usual, lots of singleton and doubleton patches all over the tree and
there's little I can say which isn't in the individual changelogs.
 
 The lengthier patch series are
 
 - "kdump: use generic functions to simplify crashkernel reservation in
   arch", from Baoquan He.  This is mainly cleanups and consolidation of
   the "crashkernel=" kernel parameter handling.
 
 - After much discussion, David Laight's "minmax: Relax type checks in
   min() and max()" is here.  Hopefully reduces some typecasting and the
   use of min_t() and max_t().
 
 - A group of patches from Oleg Nesterov which clean up and slightly fix
   our handling of reads from /proc/PID/task/...  and which remove
   task_struct.therad_group.

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.
