Linus Torvalds f0d43b3a38 s390 updates for 5.17 merge window
- add fast vector/SIMD implementation of the ChaCha20 stream cipher,
   which mainly adapts Andy Polyakov's code for the kernel
 
 - add status attribute to AP queue device so users can easily figure
   out its status
 
 - fix race in page table release code, and and lots of documentation
 
 - remove uevent suppress from cio device driver, since it turned out
   that it generated more problems than it solved problems

 "Besides all the small improvements and cleanups the most notable part
  is the fast vector/SIMD implementation of the ChaCha20 stream cipher,
  which is an adaptation of Andy Polyakov's code for the kernel.

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.
