Linus Torvalds 670310dfba Merge branch 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull irq core updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large update for the interrupt core code and the irq chip drivers:

   - Add a new bitmap matrix allocator and supporting changes, which is
     used to replace the x86 vector allocator which comes with separate
     pull request. This allows to replace the convoluted nested loop
     allocation function in x86 with a facility which supports the
     recently added property of managed interrupts proper and allows to
     switch to a best effort vector reservation scheme, which addresses
     problems with vector exhaustion.

   - A large update to the ARM GIC-V3-ITS driver adding support for
     range selectors.

   - New interrupt controllers:
       - Meson and Meson8 GPIO
       - BCM7271 L2
       - Socionext EXIU

     If you expected that this will stop at some point, I have to
     disappoint you. There are new ones posted already. Sigh!

   - STM32 interrupt controller support for new platforms.

   - A pile of fixes, cleanups and updates to the MIPS GIC driver

   - The usual small fixes, cleanups and updates all over the place.
     Most visible one is to move the irq chip drivers Kconfig switches
     into a separate Kconfig menu"

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
