mainlining shenanigans
527cd20771
This tag contains the new features we'd like to incorporate into the
RISC-V port for 4.17. We might have a bit more stuff land later in the
merge window, but I wanted to get this out earlier just so everyone can
see where we currently stand.
A short summary of the changes is:
* We've added support for dynamic ftrace on RISC-V targets.
* There have been a handful of cleanups to our atomic and locking
routines. They now more closely match the released RISC-V memory
model draft.
* Our module loading support has been cleaned up and is now enabled by
default, despite some limitations still existing.
* A patch to define COMMANDLINE_FORCE instead of COMMANDLINE_OVERRIDE so
the generic device tree code picks up handling all our command line
stuff.
There's more information in the merge commits for each patch set.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
