Linus Torvalds 3711c94fd6 Merge branch 'efi-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - move BGRT handling to drivers/acpi so it can be shared between x86
     and ARM

   - bring the EFI stub's initrd and FDT allocation logic in line with
     the latest changes to the arm64 boot protocol

   - improvements and fixes to the EFI stub's command line parsing
     routines

   - randomize the virtual mapping of the UEFI runtime services on
     ARM/arm64

   - ... and other misc enhancements, cleanups and fixes"

README

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.
