Linus Torvalds 485fc4b69c dax fix 5.4-rc5
- Fix a performance regression that followed from a fix to the
   conversion of the fsdax implementation to the xarray. v5.3 users
   report that they stop seeing huge page mappings on an application +
   filesystem layout that was seeing huge pages previously on v5.2.

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.
