Linus Torvalds a782e86649 Saner handling of "lseek should fail with ESPIPE" - gets rid of
magical no_llseek thing and makes checks consistent.  In particular,
 ad-hoc "can we do splice via internal pipe" checks got saner (and
 somewhat more permissive, which is what Jason had been after, AFAICT)

Pull vfs lseek updates from Al Viro:
 "Jason's lseek series.

  Saner handling of 'lseek should fail with ESPIPE' - this gets rid of
  the magical no_llseek thing and makes checks consistent.

  In particular, the ad-hoc "can we do splice via internal pipe" checks
  got saner (and somewhat more permissive, which is what Jason had been
  after, AFAICT)"

* tag 'pull-work.lseek' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  fs: remove no_llseek
  fs: check FMODE_LSEEK to control internal pipe splicing
  vfio: do not set FMODE_LSEEK flag
  dma-buf: remove useless FMODE_LSEEK flag
  fs: do not compare against ->llseek
  fs: clear or set FMODE_LSEEK based on llseek function

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.
