   finally annotate add_disk() as must_check. (Luis)

 - bcache fixes (Coly)

 - zram fixes (Ming)

 - ataflop locking fix (Tetsuo)

 - nbd fixes (Ye, Yu)

 - MD merge via Song
      - Cleanup (Yang)
      - sysfs fix (Guoqing)

 - Misc fixes (Geert, Wu, luo)

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.
