Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "The big fix here is to our vDSO sigreturn trampoline as, after a
  painfully long stint of debugging, it turned out that fixing some of
  our CFI directives in the merge window lit up a bunch of logic in
  libgcc which has been shown to SEGV in some cases during asynchronous
  pthread cancellation.

  It looks like we can fix this by extending the directives to restore
  most of the interrupted register state from the sigcontext, but it's
  risky and hard to test so we opted to remove the CFI directives for
  now and rely on the unwinder fallback path like we used to.

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.
