Linus Torvalds 550d1f5bda This includes three fixes:
- Fixes a deadlock from a previous fix to keep module loading
    and function tracing text modifications from stepping on each other.
    (this has a few patches to help document the issue in comments)
 
  - Fix a crash when the snapshot buffer gets out of sync with the
    main ring buffer.
 
  - Fix a memory leak when reading the memory logs

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.
