Linus Torvalds b68e7e952f Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:

 - three merges for KVM/s390 with changes for vfio-ccw and cpacf. The
   patches are included in the KVM tree as well, let git sort it out.

 - add the new 'trng' random number generator

 - provide the secure key verification API for the pkey interface

 - introduce the z13 cpu counters to perf

 - add a new system call to set up the guarded storage facility

 - simplify TASK_SIZE and arch_get_unmapped_area

 - export the raw STSI data related to CPU topology to user space

 - ... and the usual churn of bug-fixes and cleanups.

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.
