Greg Kroah-Hartman 54a21903df USB-serial updates for v4.11-rc1
These updates include
 
  - a new driver for Renesas uPD78F0730-based devices
 
  - several fixes of failures to check for short transfers, some of which could
    lead to minor information leaks, and in one case a loop-condition underflow
 
  - a fix of a long-standing regression in the ftdi_sio driver which resulted
    in excessive bulk-in interrupts
 
  - a fix for ftdi_sio line-status over-reporting which could lead to an
    endless stream of NULL-characters being forwarded to user space
 
  - a fix for a regression in the console driver
 
  - a fix for another mos7840 NULL-pointer dereference due to a missing endpoint
    sanity check
 
 Included are also some clean ups and fixes for various minor issues, as well as
 a couple of new device IDs that came in late.
 
 All but the final patch have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

README

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.
