David S. Miller e0c42c8e3e wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.16
The most important here is the ssb fix, it has been reported by the
 users frequently and the fix just missed the final v4.15. Also
 numerous other fixes, mt76 had multiple problems with aggregation and
 a long standing unaligned access bug in rtlwifi is finally fixed.
 
 Major changes:
 
 ath10k
 
 * correct firmware RAM dump length for QCA6174/QCA9377
 
 * add new QCA988X device id
 
 * fix a kernel panic during pci probe
 
 * revert a recent commit which broke ath10k firmware metadata parsing
 
 ath9k
 
 * fix a noise floor regression introduced during the merge window
 
 * add new device id
 
 rtlwifi
 
 * fix unaligned access seen on ARM architecture
 
 mt76
 
 * various aggregation fixes which fix connection stalls
 
 ssb
 
 * fix b43 and b44 on non-MIPS which broke in v4.15-rc9

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
