Greg Kroah-Hartman 8ebe0e20bf USB-serial updates for v4.12-rc1
Here are the USB-serial updates for 4.12, including:
 
  - support for devices with up to 16 ports (e.g. some Moxa devices)
 
  - support for endpoint sanity checks in core, which allows for code sharing
    and avoids allocating resources for rejected interfaces
 
  - support for endpoint-port remapping, which allows some driver hacks to
    be removed as well as omninet to use the generic write implementation
 
  - removal of an obsolete tty open-race workaround which prevented a
    port from being opened immediately after having been registered
 
  - generic-driver support for interfaces with just a bulk-in endpoint
 
  - improved ftdi_sio event-char and latency-timer handling
 
  - improved ftdi_sio support for some broken BM chips
 
 Included are also various clean ups and a new ftdi_sio device id.
 
 All have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
