Linus Torvalds ac1820fb28 This is a tree wide change and has been kept separate for that reason.
Bart Van Assche noted that the ib DMA mapping code was significantly
 similar enough to the core DMA mapping code that with a few changes
 it was possible to remove the IB DMA mapping code entirely and
 switch the RDMA stack to use the core DMA mapping code.  This resulted
 in a nice set of cleanups, but touched the entire tree.  This branch
 will be submitted separately to Linus at the end of the merge window
 as per normal practice for tree wide changes like this.

Pull rdma DMA mapping updates from Doug Ledford:

README

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.
