Linus Torvalds 17b17be28d VFIO fixes for v6.7-rc4
- Fix the lifecycle of a mutex in the pds variant driver such that
    a reset prior to opening the device won't find it uninitialized.
    Implement the release path to symmetrically destroy the mutex.
    Also switch a different lock from spinlock to mutex as the code
    path has the potential to sleep and doesn't need the spinlock
    context otherwise. (Brett Creeley)
 
  - Fix an issue detected via randconfig where KVM tries to symbol_get
    an undeclared function.  The symbol is temporarily declared
    unconditionally here, which resolves the problem and avoids churn
    relative to a series pending for the next merge window which
    resolves some of this symbol ugliness, but also fixes Kconfig
    dependencies. (Sean Christopherson)

README

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.

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.
