Linus Torvalds 1c6b942d7d Fix a regression which caused us to fail to interpret symlinks in very
ancient ext3 file system images.  Also fix two xfstests failures, one
 of which could cause a OOPS, plus an additional bug fix caught by fuzz
 testing.

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.
