Linus Torvalds 47fcc0360c Driver Core updates for 4.16-rc1
Here is the set of "big" driver core patches for 4.16-rc1.
 
 The majority of the work here is in the firmware subsystem, with reworks
 to try to attempt to make the code easier to handle in the long run, but
 no functional change.  There's also some tree-wide sysfs attribute
 fixups with lots of acks from the various subsystem maintainers, as well
 as a handful of other normal fixes and changes.
 
 And finally, some license cleanups for the driver core and sysfs code.
 
 All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

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.
