Linus Torvalds d2b6b4c832 Highlights:
- Add a new /proc/fs/nfsd/clients/ directory which exposes some
   long-requested information about NFSv4 clients (like open files) and
   allows forced revocation of client state.
 
 - Replace the global duplicate reply cache by a cache per network
   namespace; previously, a request in one network namespace could
   incorrectly match an entry from another, though we haven't seen this
   in production.  This is the last remaining container bug that I'm
   aware of; at this point you should be able to run separate nfsd's in
   each network namespace, each with their own set of exports, and
   everything should work.
 
 - Cleanup and modify lock code to show the pid of lockd as the owner of
   NLM locks.  This is the correct version of the bugfix originally
   attempted in b8eee0e90f "lockd: Show pid of lockd for remote locks".

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.
