Linus Torvalds 9e8f8f1ef4 Char/Misc fixes for 4.15-rc8
Here are two bugfixes for some driver bugs for 4.15-rc8
 
 The first is a bluetooth security bug that has been ignored by the
 Bluetooth developers for months for no obvious reason at all, so I've
 taken it through my tree.
 
 The second is a simple double-free bug in the mux subsystem.
 
 Both have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

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.
