Linus Torvalds becdce1c66 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:

 - Improvements for the spectre defense:
    * The spectre related code is consolidated to a single file
      nospec-branch.c
    * Automatic enable/disable for the spectre v2 defenses (expoline vs.
      nobp)
    * Syslog messages for specve v2 are added
    * Enable CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_VULNERABILITIES and define the attribute
      functions for spectre v1 and v2

 - Add helper macros for assembler alternatives and use them to shorten
   the code in entry.S.

 - Add support for persistent configuration data via the SCLP Store Data
   interface. The H/W interface requires a page table that uses 4K pages
   only, the code to setup such an address space is added as well.

 - Enable virtio GPU emulation in QEMU. To do this the depends
   statements for a few common Kconfig options are modified.

 - Add support for format-3 channel path descriptors and add a binary
   sysfs interface to export the associated utility strings.

 - Add a sysfs attribute to control the IFCC handling in case of
   constant channel errors.

 - The vfio-ccw changes from Cornelia.

 - Bug fixes and cleanups.

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.
