Linus Torvalds 148842c98a Yet another large set of x86 interrupt management updates:
- Simplification and distangling of the MSI related functionality
 
    - Let IO/APIC construct the RTE entries from an MSI message instead of
      having IO/APIC specific code in the interrupt remapping drivers
 
    - Make the retrieval of the parent interrupt domain (vector or remap
      unit) less hardcoded and use the relevant irqdomain callbacks for
      selection.
 
    - Allow the handling of more than 255 CPUs without a virtualized IOMMU
      when the hypervisor supports it. This has made been possible by the
      above modifications and also simplifies the existing workaround in the
      HyperV specific virtual IOMMU.
 
    - Cleanup of the historical timer_works() irq flags related
      inconsistencies.

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.
