Linus Torvalds 9e3a25dc99 dma-mapping updates for Linux 5.3
- move the USB special case that bounced DMA through a device
    bar into the USB code instead of handling it in the common
    DMA code (Laurentiu Tudor and Fredrik Noring)
  - don't dip into the global CMA pool for single page allocations
    (Nicolin Chen)
  - fix a crash when allocating memory for the atomic pool failed
    during boot (Florian Fainelli)
  - move support for MIPS-style uncached segments to the common
    code and use that for MIPS and nios2 (me)
  - make support for DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT and
    DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING generic (me)
  - convert nds32 to the generic remapping allocator (me)

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.
