Linus Torvalds 64a48099b3 Merge branch 'WIP.x86-pti.entry-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 syscall entry code changes for PTI from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes here are Andy Lutomirski's changes to switch the
  x86-64 entry code to use the 'per CPU entry trampoline stack'. This,
  besides helping fix KASLR leaks (the pending Page Table Isolation
  (PTI) work), also robustifies the x86 entry code"

README

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.
