Linus Torvalds 9b03992f0c Fix some bugs in converting ext4 to use the new mount API, as well as
more bug fixes and clean ups in the ext4 fast_commit feature (most
 notably, in the tracepoints).  In the jbd2 layer, the t_handle_lock
 spinlock has been removed, with the last place where it was actually
 needed replaced with an atomic cmpxchg.

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.
