Linus Torvalds b50694381c Merge branch 'stable/for-linus-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/swiotlb
Pull swiotlb fix from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "One single fix in here: under Xen the DMA32 heap (in the hypervisor)
  would end up looking like swiss cheese.

  The reason being that for every coherent DMA allocation we didn't do
  the proper hypercall to tell Xen to return the page back to the DMA32
  heap. End result was (eventually) no DMA32 space if you (for example)
  continously unloaded and loaded modules"

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.
