A small batch of MIPS fixes for 5.1: - An interrupt masking fix for Loongson-based Lemote 2F systems (fixing a regression from v3.19). - A relocation fix for configurations in which the devicetree is stored in an ELF section (fixing a regression from v4.7). - Fix jump labels for MIPSr6 kernels where they previously could inadvertently place a control transfer instruction in a forbidden slot & take unexpected exceptions (fixing MIPSr6 support added in v4.0). - Extend an existing USB power workaround for the Netgear WNDR3400 to v2 boards in addition to the v3 ones that already used it. - Remove the custom MIPS32 definition of __kernel_fsid_t to make it consistent with MIPS64 & every other architecture, in particular resolving issues for code which tries to print the val field whose type previously differed (though had identical memory layout). Merged into mips-next to gain the MIPSr6 jump label fix before enabling jump labels by default for generic kernel builds. Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@mips.com>
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.
