Linus Torvalds b12b472496 powerpc updates for 5.12
A large series adding wrappers for our interrupt handlers, so that irq/nmi/user
 tracking can be isolated in the wrappers rather than spread in each handler.
 
 Conversion of the 32-bit syscall handling into C.
 
 A series from Nick to streamline our TLB flushing when using the Radix MMU.
 
 Switch to using queued spinlocks by default for 64-bit server CPUs.
 
 A rework of our PCI probing so that it happens later in boot, when more generic
 infrastructure is available.
 
 Two small fixes to allow 32-bit little-endian processes to run on 64-bit
 kernels.
 
 Other smaller features, fixes & cleanups.

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.
