Linus Torvalds 406037351e LKMM updates for v6.4
This update improves LKMM diagnostic messages, unifies handling
 of the ordering produced by unlock/lock pairs, adds support for the
 smp_mb__after_srcu_read_unlock() macro, removes redundant members from
 the to-r relation, brings SRCU read-side semantics into alignment
 with Linux-kernel SRCU, makes ppo a subrelation of po, and improves
 documentation.

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.
