Linus Torvalds b400792732 This is a rather large set of bugfixes, as we just returned from the
Christmas break. Most of these are relatively unimportant fixes for
 regressions introduced during the merge window, and about half of
 the changes are for mach-omap2.
 
 A couple of patches are just cleanups and dead code removal that I would
 not normally have considered for merging after -rc2, but I decided to
 take them along with the fixes this time.
 
 Notable fixes include:
 
 - removing the skeleton.dtsi include broke a number of machines, and we
   have to put empty /chosen nodes back to be able to pass kernel command
   lines as before
 
 - enabling Samsung platforms no longer hardwires CONFIG_HZ to 200,
   as it had been for no good reason for a long time.

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.
