Linus Torvalds aa5b1054ba powerpc fixes for 4.19 #2
- An implementation for the newly added hv_ops->flush() for the OPAL hvc
    console driver backends, I forgot to apply this after merging the hvc driver
    changes before the merge window.
 
  - Enable all PCI bridges at boot on powernv, to avoid races when multiple
    children of a bridge try to enable it simultaneously. This is a workaround
    until the PCI core can be enhanced to fix the races.
 
  - A fix to query PowerVM for the correct system topology at boot before
    initialising sched domains, seen in some configurations to cause broken
    scheduling etc.
 
  - A fix for pte_access_permitted() on "nohash" platforms.
 
  - Two commits to fix SIGBUS when using remap_pfn_range() seen on Power9 due to
    a workaround when using the nest MMU (GPUs, accelerators).
 
  - Another fix to the VFIO code used by KVM, the previous fix had some bugs
    which caused guests to not start in some configurations.
 
  - A handful of other minor fixes.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
