- Implement user_access_begin() and friends for our platforms that support
controlling kernel access to userspace.
- Enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK on 32-bit Book3S and 8xx.
- Some tweaks to our pseries IOMMU code to allow SVMs ("secure" virtual
machines) to use the IOMMU.
- Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 32-bit VDSO, and
some other improvements.
- A series to use the PCI hotplug framework to control opencapi card's so that
they can be reset and re-read after flashing a new FPGA image.
As well as other minor fixes and improvements as usual.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"A pretty small batch for us, and apologies for it being a bit late, I
wanted to sneak Christophe's user_access_begin() series in.
Summary:
- Implement user_access_begin() and friends for our platforms that
support controlling kernel access to userspace.
- Enable CONFIG_VMAP_STACK on 32-bit Book3S and 8xx.
- Some tweaks to our pseries IOMMU code to allow SVMs ("secure"
virtual machines) to use the IOMMU.
- Add support for CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE to the 32-bit
VDSO, and some other improvements.
- A series to use the PCI hotplug framework to control opencapi
card's so that they can be reset and re-read after flashing a new
FPGA image.
As well as other minor fixes and improvements as usual.

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.
