Linus Torvalds 122b7e3380 Char/Misc driver fixes for 4.20-rc8
Here are 3 tiny last-minute driver fixes for 4.20-rc8 that resolve some
 reported issues, and one MAINTAINERS file update.
 
 All of them are related to the hyper-v subsystem, it seems people are
 actually testing and using it now, which is nice to see :)
 
 The fixes are:
   - uio_hv_generic: fix for opening multiple times
   - Remove PCI dependancy on hyperv drivers
   - return proper error code for an unopened channel.
 
 And Sasha has signed up to help out with the hyperv maintainership.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

README

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.
