Linus Torvalds 6bc3fe8e7e tools: mark 'test_vmalloc.sh' executable
Several of these scripts have come in as old-fashioned patches, and in
the process lost the executable bit.  In most cases it doesn't matter,
since the test infrastructure will explicitly execute them using the
proper shell interpreter, but at least in the case of the new vmalloc
test, the lack of execurable bit caused the test to fail with

    ./run_vmtests: line 217: ./test_vmalloc.sh: Permission denied

because of the lacking exectuable permissions bit.

This patch fixes that up.

NOTE! A simple script to look for non-executable scripts in the kernel,
something like

    git ls-files --stage -- '*.sh' |
        grep 100644 |
        cut -f2 |
        xargs grep -l '#!'

will show that there's a lot of other files that _look_ like executable
shell scripts, but don't have the executable bit set.  I considered just
scripting them all to be executable, but since it looks like the common
pattern is to not really require it, I'm just doing the minimal fix as
pointed out by the kernel test robot.

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.
