Linus Torvalds 0dcf60d001 asm-generic: build fixes for v5.15
There is one build fix for Arm platforms that ended up impacting most
 architectures because of the way the drivers/firmware Kconfig file is
 wired up:
 
 The CONFIG_QCOM_SCM dependency have caused a number of randconfig
 regressions over time, and some still remain in v5.15-rc4. The
 fix we agreed on in the end is to make this symbol selected by any
 driver using it, and then building it even for non-Arm platforms with
 CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.
 
 To make this work on all architectures, the drivers/firmware/Kconfig
 file needs to be included for all architectures to make the symbol
 itself visible.
 
 In a separate discussion, we found that a sound driver patch that is
 pending for v5.16 needs the same change to include this Kconfig file,
 so the easiest solution seems to have my Kconfig rework included in v5.15.
 
 There is a small merge conflict against an earlier partial fix for the
 QCOM_SCM dependency problems.
 
 Finally, the branch also includes a small unrelated build fix for NOMMU
 architectures.

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.
