Merge tag 'for-linus-20181109' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:

 - Two fixes for an ubd regression, one for missing locking, and one for
   a missing initialization of a field. The latter was an old latent
   bug, but it's now visible and triggers (Me, Anton Ivanov)

 - Set of NVMe fixes via Christoph, but applied manually due to a git
   tree mixup (Christoph, Sagi)

 - Fix for a discard split regression, in three patches (Ming)

 - Update libata git trees (Geert)

 - SPDX identifier for sata_rcar (Kuninori Morimoto)

 - Virtual boundary merge fix (Johannes)

 - Preemptively clear memory we are going to pass to userspace, in case
   the driver does a short read (Keith)

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.
