Linus Torvalds 9539ba4308 RISC-V Fixes for 5.16-rc2
I have two patches for 5.16:
 
 * A fix that allows external modules to be built against read-only
   source trees.
 * A patch to turn KVM on in the defconfigs.
 
 The second one isn't technically a fix, but it got tied up pending some
 defconfig cleanups that ended up finding some larger issues.  I figured
 it'd be better to get the config changes some more testing, but didn't
 want to hold up turning KVM on for that.

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.
