Linus Torvalds f4f5d7cfb2 virtio: features, fixes
vdpa generic device type support
 More virtio hardening for broken devices
 On the same theme, revert some virtio hotplug hardening patches -
 they were misusing some interrupt flags, will have to be reverted.
 RSS support in virtio-net
 max device MTU support in mlx5 vdpa
 akcipher support in virtio-crypto
 shared IRQ support in ifcvf vdpa
 a minor performance improvement in vhost
 Enable virtio mem for ARM64
 beginnings of advance dma support
 
 Cleanups, fixes all over the place.

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.
