Linus Torvalds b1b5bf1640 Fixes for IPMI
Add limits on the number of users and messages, plus sysfs interfaces
 to control those limits.
 
 Other than that, little cleanups, use dev_xxx() insted of pr_xxx(),
 create initializers for structures, fix a refcount leak, etc.

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.
