Linus Torvalds 93d5228867 * Apple DWI Backlight:
* Added devicetree bindings for backlight controllers on Apple's
     DWI interface.
   * Added a new driver (apple_dwi_bl) for these controllers found
     on some Apple mobile devices.
   * Added MAINTAINERS entries for the new driver.
 
   * led_bl: Fixed a locking issue by holding the led_access lock
     when calling led_sysfs_disable() during device removal to
     prevent potential warnings.
 
   * Removed unnecessary <linux/fb.h> includes from a bunch of
     drivers.
   * tdo24m: Removed redundant whitespace in Kconfig description.
 
   * pcf50633-backlight: Removed the driver as the underlying
     pcf50633 MFD and s3c24xx platform support were removed.

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.
