Linus Torvalds c3a1309564 - DM writecache fix to allow dax_direct_access() to partitioned pmem
devices.
 
 - DM multipath fix to avoid any Path Group initialization if
   'pg_init_in_progress' isn't set.
 
 - DM crypt fix to use DECLARE_CRYPTO_WAIT() for onstack wait
   structures.
 
 - DM integrity fix to properly check integrity after device creation
   when in bitmap mode.
 
 - DM thinp and cache target __create_persistent_data_objects() fixes
   to reset the metadata's dm_block_manager pointer from PTR_ERR to
   NULL before returning from error path.
 
 - DM persistent-data block manager fix to guard against
   dm_block_manager NULL pointer dereference in dm_bm_is_read_only()
   and update various opencoded bm->read_only checks to use
   dm_bm_is_read_only() instead.

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.
