Linus Torvalds d22fff8141 Merge branch 'x86-mm-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Extend the memmap= boot parameter syntax to allow the redeclaration
   and dropping of existing ranges, and to support all e820 range types
   (Jan H. Schönherr)

 - Improve the W+X boot time security checks to remove false positive
   warnings on Xen (Jan Beulich)

 - Support booting as Xen PVH guest (Juergen Gross)

 - Improved 5-level paging (LA57) support, in particular it's possible
   now to have a single kernel image for both 4-level and 5-level
   hardware (Kirill A. Shutemov)

 - AMD hardware RAM encryption support (SME/SEV) fixes (Tom Lendacky)

 - Preparatory commits for hardware-encrypted RAM support on Intel CPUs.
   (Kirill A. Shutemov)

 - Improved Intel-MID support (Andy Shevchenko)

 - Show EFI page tables in page_tables debug files (Andy Lutomirski)

 - ... plus misc fixes and smaller cleanups

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
