Linus Torvalds 24c56ee06c - Correct the marking of kthreads which are supposed to run on a specific,
single CPU vs such which are affine to only one CPU, mark per-cpu workqueue
  threads as such and make sure that marking "survives" CPU hotplug. Fix CPU
  hotplug issues with such kthreads.
 
  - A fix to not push away tasks on CPUs coming online.
 
  - Have workqueue CPU hotplug code use cpu_possible_mask when breaking affinity
    on CPU offlining so that pending workers can finish on newly arrived onlined
    CPUs too.
 
  - Dump tasks which haven't vacated a CPU which is currently being unplugged.
 
  - Register a special scale invariance callback which gets called on resume
  from RAM to read out APERF/MPERF after resume and thus make the schedutil
  scaling governor more precise.

Pull scheduler fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Correct the marking of kthreads which are supposed to run on a
   specific, single CPU vs such which are affine to only one CPU, mark
   per-cpu workqueue threads as such and make sure that marking
   "survives" CPU hotplug. Fix CPU hotplug issues with such kthreads.

 - A fix to not push away tasks on CPUs coming online.

 - Have workqueue CPU hotplug code use cpu_possible_mask when breaking
   affinity on CPU offlining so that pending workers can finish on newly
   arrived onlined CPUs too.

 - Dump tasks which haven't vacated a CPU which is currently being
   unplugged.

 - Register a special scale invariance callback which gets called on
   resume from RAM to read out APERF/MPERF after resume and thus make
   the schedutil scaling governor more precise.

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.
