Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)

A down_read on memory_lock is held when performing read/write accesses
to MMIO BAR space, including across the copy_to/from_user() callouts
which may fault. If the user buffer for these copies resides in an
mmap of device MMIO space, the mmap fault handler will acquire a
recursive read-lock on memory_lock. Avoid this by reducing the lock
granularity. Sequential accesses requiring multiple ioread/iowrite
cycles are expected to be rare, therefore typical accesses should not
see additional overhead.
VGA MMIO accesses are expected to be non-fatal regardless of the PCI
memory enable bit to allow legacy probing, this behavior remains with
a comment added. ioeventfds are now included in memory access testing,
with writes dropped while memory space is disabled.

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.
