David S. Miller d9631c7a5d wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.16
Here are patches which have been accumulating over the holidays and
 after the New Year. Business as usual and nothing special really
 standing out.
 
 But what's noteworthy here is that Larry Finger is stepping down as
 the rtlwifi maintainer. He has been maintaining rtlwifi since it was
 applied back in 2010 in commit 0c8173385e ("rtl8192ce: Add new
 driver") and it has been no easy role trying to juggle between the
 vendor, demanding upstream community and users. So big thank you to
 Larry for all his efforts!

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
