Linus Torvalds 24b6124047 KVM fixes for v4.15-rc9
ARM:
 * fix incorrect huge page mappings on systems using the contiguous hint
   for hugetlbfs
 * support alternative GICv4 init sequence
 * correctly implement the ARM SMCC for HVC and SMC handling
 
 PPC:
 * add KVM IOCTL for reporting vulnerability and workaround status
 
 s390:
 * provide userspace interface for branch prediction changes in firmware
 
 x86:
 * use correct macros for bits

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.
