Linus Torvalds 1fc7f56db7 Quite a few fixes for x86: nested virtualization save/restore, AMD nested virtualization
and virtual APIC, 32-bit fixes, an important fix to restore operation on older
 processors, and a bunch of hyper-v bugfixes.  Several are marked stable.
 
 There are also fixes for GCC warnings and for a GCC/objtool interaction.

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.
