Linus Torvalds c420ddda50 A collection of MIPS fixes:
- Fill the struct cacheinfo shared_cpu_map field with sensible values,
   notably avoiding issues with perf which was unhappy in the absence of
   these values.
 
 - A boot fix for Loongson 2E & 2F machines which was fallout from some
   refactoring performed this cycle.
 
 - A Kconfig dependency fix for the Loongson CPU HWMon driver.
 
 - A couple of VDSO fixes, ensuring gettimeofday() behaves appropriately
   for kernel configurations that don't include support for a clocksource
   the VDSO can use & fixing the calling convention for the n32 & n64
   VDSOs which would previously clobber the $gp/$28 register.
 
 - A build fix for vmlinuz compressed images which were inappropriately
   building with -fsanitize-coverage despite not being part of the kernel
   proper, then failing to link due to the missing
   __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() function.
 
 - A couple of eBPF JIT fixes, including disabling it for MIPS32 due to a
   large number of issues with the code generated there & reflecting ISA
   dependencies in Kconfig to enforce that systems which don't support
   the JIT must include the interpreter.

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.
