Linus Torvalds 93ce7948e3 Follow-up tweaks for the EFI changes in v5.19
- fix new DXE service invocations for mixed mode
 - use correct Kconfig symbol when setting PE header flag
 - clean up the drivers/firmware/efi Kconfig dependencies so that
   features that depend on CONFIG_EFI are hidden from the UI when the
   symbol is not enabled.
 
 Also included is a RISC-V bugfix from Heinrich to avoid read-write
 mappings of read-only firmware regions in the EFI page tables.

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.
