Andreas Gruenbacher 972b044eec gfs2: Don't pack struct lm_lockname
As per a suggestion by Linus, don't pack struct lm_lockname: we did that
because the struct is used as a rhashtable key, but packing tells the
compiler that the 64-bit fields in the struct may be unaligned, causing
it to generate worse code on some architectures.  Instead, rearrange the
fields in the struct so that there is no padding between fields, and
exclude any tail padding from the hash key size.

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.
