A set of small driver and core code fixes:
 
 - Small series fixing longtime user triggerable bugs in the
   ODP processing inside mlx5 and core code

Pull rdma fixes from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "This is a bit later than usual for our first -rc but I'm not seeing
  anything worry-some in the RDMA tree right now. Quiet so far this -rc
  cycle, only a few internal driver related bugs and a small series
  fixing ODP bugs found by more advanced testing.

  A set of small driver and core code fixes:

   - Small series fixing longtime user triggerable bugs in the ODP
     processing inside mlx5 and core code

   - Various small driver malfunctions and crashes (use after, free,
     error unwind, implementation bugs)

   - A misfunction of the RDMA GID cache that can be triggered by the
     administrator"

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.
