Linus Torvalds 45763bf4bc Char/Misc driver patches for 5.1-rc1
Here is the big char/misc driver patch pull request for 5.1-rc1.
 
 The largest thing by far is the new habanalabs driver for their AI
 accelerator chip.  For now it is in the drivers/misc directory but will
 probably move to a new directory soon along with other drivers of this
 type.
 
 Other than that, just the usual set of individual driver updates and
 fixes.  There's an "odd" merge in here from the DRM tree that they asked
 me to do as the MEI driver is starting to interact with the i915 driver,
 and it needed some coordination.  All of those patches have been
 properly acked by the relevant subsystem maintainers.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues, most for
 quite some time.

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.
