Linus Torvalds fa509ff879 A couple of locking fixes:
- A fix for the static_call mechanism so it handles unaligned
    addresses correctly.
 
  - Make u64_stats_init() a macro so every instance gets a seperate lockdep
    key.
 
  - Make seqcount_latch_init() a macro as well to preserve the static
    variable which is used for the lockdep key.

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.
