Linus Torvalds 91a9a90d04 Peter Zijlstra says:
The most anticipated fix in this pull request is probably the horrible build
 fix for the RANDSTRUCT fail that didn't make -rc2. Also included is the cleanup
 that removes those BUILD_BUG_ON()s and replaces it with ugly unions.
 
 Also included is the try_to_wake_up() race fix that was first triggered by
 Paul's RCU-torture runs, but was independently hit by Dave Chinner's fstest
 runs as well.

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.
