Linus Torvalds c6dd78fcb8 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of x86 specific fixes and updates:

   - The CR2 corruption fixes which store CR2 early in the entry code
     and hand the stored address to the fault handlers.

   - Revert a forgotten leftover of the dropped FSGSBASE series.

   - Plug a memory leak in the boot code.

   - Make the Hyper-V assist functionality robust by zeroing the shadow
     page.

   - Remove a useless check for dead processes with LDT

   - Update paravirt and VMware maintainers entries.

   - A few cleanup patches addressing various compiler warnings"

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.
