Linus Torvalds 552ebfe022 parisc architecture updates for kernel v5.16-rc1
Lots of new features and fixes:
 * Added TOC (table of content) support, which is a debugging feature which is
   either initiated by pressing the TOC button or via command in the BMC. If
   pressed the Linux built-in KDB/KGDB will be called (Sven Schnelle)
 * Fix CONFIG_PREEMPT (Sven)
 * Fix unwinder on 64-bit kernels (Sven)
 * Various kgdb fixes (Sven)
 * Added KFENCE support (me)
 * Switch to ARCH_STACKWALK implementation (me)
 * Fix ptrace check on syscall return (me)
 * Fix kernel crash with fixmaps on PA1.x machines (me)
 * Move thread_info into task struct, aka CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK (me)
 * Updated defconfigs
 * Smaller cleanups, including Makefile cleanups (Masahiro Yamada),
   use kthread_run() macro (Cai Huoqing), use swap() macro (Yihao Han).

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.
