Pull parisc architecture fixes from Helge Deller:
 "The current exception handler, which helps on kernel accesses to
  userspace, may exhibit data corruption. The problem is that it is not
  guaranteed that the compiler will use the processor register we
  specified in the source code, but may choose another register which
  then will lead to silent register- and data corruption. To fix this
  issue we now use another strategy to help the exception handler to
  always find and set the error code into the correct CPU register.

  The other fixes are small: fixing CPU hotplug bringup, fix the page
  alignment of the RO_DATA section, added a check for the calculated
  cache stride and fix possible hangups when printing longer output at
  bootup when running on serial console.

  Most of the patches are tagged for stable series.

   - Fix random data corruption triggered by exception handler

   - Fix crash when setting up BTLB at CPU bringup

   - Prevent hung tasks when printing inventory on serial console

   - Make RO_DATA page aligned in vmlinux.lds.S

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.
