mlx5e netdevice driver updates:
 
 - Boris Pismenny added the support for UDP GSO in the first two patches.
   Impressive performance numbers are included in the commit message,
   @Line rate with ~half of the cpu utilization compared to non offload
   or no GSO at all.
 
 - From Tariq Toukan:
   - Convert large order kzalloc allocations to kvzalloc.
   - Added performance diagnostic statistics to several places in data path.
 
 From Saeed and Eran,
   - Update NIC HW stats on demand only, this is to eliminate the background
     thread needed to update some HW statistics in the driver cache in
     order to report error and drop counters from HW in ndo_get_stats.

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.
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.
