Linus Torvalds 4ad680f083 Staging driver updates for 5.19-rc1
Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 5.19-rc1.
 
 Lots of forward progress happened this development cycle, one driver
 (wfx wireless driver) got merged into the real portion of the kernel,
 and another one (unisys) was removed as no one is around anymore to take
 care of it and no one has the hardware.  Combined with loads of tiny
 driver cleanups overall we removed 13k lines of code from the tree, a
 nice improvement.
 
 Other than the wfx and unisys driver changes the major points of this
 merge is:
 	- r8188eu driver cleanups.  So many cleanups.  It's amazing just
 	  how many things have been cleaned up here, and yet, how many
 	  remain to go.  Lots of work happened here, and it doesn't look
 	  to slow down any time soon.
 	- other wifi driver cleanups.  Not as many as the r8188eu
 	  driver, but still pretty impressive from a janitorial point of
 	  view.
 	- bcm2853 driver cleanups
 	- other very minor driver cleanups
 
 All of these have been in the linux-next tree for weeks with no reported
 issues.
 
 Note, you will have a merge conflict in the
 drivers/net/wireless/silabs/wfx/sta.c file, please just take the change
 that came in from the wifi tree.  We thought as I had pulled the same
 merge point from the wifi developers this type of conflict wouldn't have
 happened, but for some reason git flags it as something to pay attention
 to and couldn't resolve it itself.

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.
