Linus Torvalds 6b2912cedc Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull signal fixes from Eric Biederman:
 "This contains four small fixes for signal handling. A missing range
  check, a regression fix, prioritizing signals we have already started
  a signal group exit for, and better detection of synchronous signals.

  The confused decision of which signals to handle failed spectacularly
  when a timer was pointed at SIGBUS and the stack overflowed. Resulting
  in an unkillable process in an infinite loop instead of a SIGSEGV and
  core dump"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  signal: Better detection of synchronous signals
  signal: Always notice exiting tasks
  signal: Always attempt to allocate siginfo for SIGSTOP
  signal: Make siginmask safe when passed a signal of 0

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.
