The driver for Silead touchscreen configurations has been renamed from silead_dmi to touchscreen_dmi since it starts supporting other touchscreens which require some DMI quirks. At the same release cycle it gets expanded to cover cases for Chuwi Vi10, ONDA V891W, Connect Tablet 9, Onda V820w, and Cube KNote i1101 tablets. Another bunch of changes is related to Mellanox platform code to allow user space to communicate with Mellanox for system control and monitoring purposes. The driver notifies user on hotplug device signal receiving. ASUS WMI drivers recognize lid flip action on UX360, and correctly toggles airplane mode LED. In addition the keyboard backlight toggle gets support. ThinkPad ACPI driver enables support for calculator key (on at least P52). It also has been fixed to support three characters model designators, which are used for modern laptops. Earlier the battery, marked as BAT1, on ThinkPad laptops has not been configured properly, which is fixed. On the opposite the multi-battery configurations now probed correctly. Dell SMBIOS driver starts working on some Dell servers which do not support token interface. The regression with backlight detection has also been fixed. In order to support dock mode on some laptops, Intel virtual button driver has been fixed. The last but not least is the fix to Intel HID driver due to changes in Dell systems that prevented to use power button.

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.
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.
