Linus Torvalds 5c2a430e85 Ext4 bug fixes and cleanups, including:
* hardening against maliciously fuzzed file systems
   * backwards compatibility for the brief period when we attempted to
      ignore zero-width characters
   * avoid potentially BUG'ing if there is a file system corruption found
     during the file system unmount
   * fix free space reporting by statfs when project quotas are enabled
     and the free space is less than the remaining project quota
 
 Also improve performance when replaying a journal with a very large
 number of revoke records (applicable for Lustre volumes).

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 reStructuredText 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.
