Linus Torvalds a231582359 The two highlights are a set of improvements to how rbd read-only
mappings are handled and a conversion to the new mount API (slightly
 complicated by the fact that we had a common option parsing framework
 that called out into rbd and the filesystem instead of them calling
 into it).  Also included a few scattered fixes and a MAINTAINERS update
 for rbd, adding Dongsheng as a reviewer.

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.
