Linus Torvalds 8e7757d83d NFS client updates for Linux 4.14
Hightlights include:
 
 Stable bugfixes:
 - Fix mirror allocation in the writeback code to avoid a use after free
 - Fix the O_DSYNC writes to use the correct byte range
 - Fix 2 use after free issues in the I/O code
 
 Features:
 - Writeback fixes to split up the inode->i_lock in order to reduce contention
 - RPC client receive fixes to reduce the amount of time the
   xprt->transport_lock is held when receiving data from a socket into am
   XDR buffer.
 - Ditto fixes to reduce contention between call side users of the rdma
   rb_lock, and its use in rpcrdma_reply_handler.
 - Re-arrange rdma stats to reduce false cacheline sharing.
 - Various rdma cleanups and optimisations.
 - Refactor the NFSv4.1 exchange id code and clean up the code.
 - Const-ify all instances of struct rpc_xprt_ops
 
 Bugfixes:
 - Fix the NFSv2 'sec=' mount option.
 - NFSv4.1: don't use machine credentials for CLOSE when using 'sec=sys'
 - Fix the NFSv3 GRANT callback when the port changes on the server.
 - Fix livelock issues with COMMIT
 - NFSv4: Use correct inode in _nfs4_opendata_to_nfs4_state() when doing
   and NFSv4.1 open by filehandle.

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.
