Linus Torvalds 0b6684ba5f RISC-V Fixes for 5.14-rc5
* A fix to avoid dereferencing a null task pointer while walking the
   stack.
 * A fix to the memory size in the HiFive Unleashed device tree.
 * A fix to disable stack protectors when randstruct is enabled, which
   results in non-deterministic offsets during module builds.
 * A pair of fixes to avoid relying on a constant physical memory base
   for the non-XIP builds.

README

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.
