Linus Torvalds 9e95dae76b Things have been very quiet on the rbd side, as work continues on the
big ticket items slated for the next merge window.
 
 On the CephFS side we have a large number of cap handling improvements,
 a fix for our long-standing abuse of ->journal_info in ceph_readpages()
 and yet another dentry pointer management patch.

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.
