Linus Torvalds 6ec8765f55 ARM: SoC fixes for 4.15
We have various small DT fixes, and one important regression fix:
 
 The recent device tree bugfixes that were intended to address issues that
 'dtc' started warning about in 4.15 fixed various USB PHY device nodes,
 but it turns out that we had code that depended on those nodes being
 incorrect and the probe failing with a particular error code. With the
 workaround we can also deal with correct device nodes.
 
 The DT fixes include:
  - Allwinner A10 and A20 had the display pipeline set up incorrectly
    (introduced in v4.15)
  - The Altera PMU lacked an interrupt-parent (never worked)
  - Pin muxing on the Openblocks A7 (never worked)
  - Clocks might get set up wrong on Armada 7K/8K (4.15 regression)
 
 We now have  additional device tree patches to address all the remaining
 warnings introduced in 4.15, but decided to queue them for 4.16 instead,
 to avoid risking another regression like the USB PHY thing mentioned
 above.

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.
