Linus Torvalds 631aa74442 Updates for miscellaneous x86 areas:
- Reserve a new boot loader type for barebox which is usally used on ARM
     and MIPS, but can also be utilized as EFI payload on x86 to provide
     watchdog-supervised boot up.
 
   - Consolidate the native and compat 32bit signal handling code and split
     the 64bit version out into a separate source file
 
   - Switch the ESPFIX random usage to get_random_long().

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.
