Ingo Molnar 3f9e646313 perf/core improvements and fixes:
- perf_mmap overwrite mode overhaul, prep work to get 'perf top'
   using it, making it bearable to use it in large core count systems
   such as Knights Landing/Mill Intel systems (Kan Liang)
 
 - s/390 now uses syscall.tbl, just like x86-64 to generate the syscall
   table id -> string tables used by 'perf trace' (Hendrik Brueckner)
 
 - Add perf vendor JSON metrics for ARM Cortex-A53 Processor (William Cohen)
 
 - Use strtoull() instead of home grown function (Andy Shevchenko)
 
 - Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.16-rc1 (Ingo Molnar)
 
 - Document missing 'perf data --force' option (Sangwon Hong)

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.
