Notable changes:
- Support for split PMD page table lock on 64-bit Book3S (Power8/9).
- Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, so we properly support live
patching again.
- Add support for patching barrier_nospec in copy_from_user() and syscall entry.
- A couple of fixes for our data breakpoints on Book3S.
- A series from Nick optimising TLB/mm handling with the Radix MMU.
- Numerous small cleanups to squash sparse/gcc warnings from Mathieu Malaterre.
- Several series optimising various parts of the 32-bit code from Christophe Leroy.
- Removal of support for two old machines, "SBC834xE" and "C2K" ("GEFanuc,C2K"),
which is why the diffstat has so many deletions.
And many other small improvements & fixes.
There's a few out-of-area changes. Some minor ftrace changes OK'ed by Steve, and
a fix to our powernv cpuidle driver. Then there's a series touching mm, x86 and
fs/proc/task_mmu.c, which cleans up some details around pkey support. It was
ack'ed/reviewed by Ingo & Dave and has been in next for several weeks.

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.
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.
