Linus Torvalds e7768e65cd - Stable fixes for 3 DM targets (integrity, verity and crypt) to
address systemic failure that can occur if user provided pages map
   to the same block.
 
 - Fix DM crypt to not allow modifying data that being encrypted for
   authenticated encryption.
 
 - Fix DM crypt and verity targets to align their respective bvec_iter
   struct members to avoid the need for byte level access (due to
   __packed attribute) that is costly on some arches (like RISC).

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.
