Linus Torvalds bb37101b36 TTY/Serial driver fixes for 5.17-rc2
Here are some small bug fixes and reverts for reported problems with the
 tty core and drivers.  They include:
 	- revert the fifo use for the 8250 console mode.  It caused too
 	  many regressions and problems, and had a bug in it as well.
 	  This is being reworked and should show up in a later -rc1
 	  release, but it's not ready for 5.17
 	- rpmsg tty race fix
 	- restore the cyclades.h uapi header file.  Turns out a compiler
 	  test suite used it for some unknown reason.  Bring it back
 	  just for the parts that are used by the builder test so they
 	  continue to build.  No functionality is restored as no one
 	  actually has this hardware anymore, nor is it really tested.
 	- stm32 driver fixes
 	- n_gsm flow control fixes
 	- pl011 driver fix
 	- rs485 initialization fix
 
 All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
 problems.

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.
