Linus Torvalds 8e7757d83d Merge tag 'nfs-for-4.14-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs
Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust:
 "Hightlights include:

  Stable bugfixes:
   - Fix mirror allocation in the writeback code to avoid a use after
     free
   - Fix the O_DSYNC writes to use the correct byte range
   - Fix 2 use after free issues in the I/O code

  Features:
   - Writeback fixes to split up the inode->i_lock in order to reduce
     contention
   - RPC client receive fixes to reduce the amount of time the
     xprt->transport_lock is held when receiving data from a socket into
     am XDR buffer.
   - Ditto fixes to reduce contention between call side users of the
     rdma rb_lock, and its use in rpcrdma_reply_handler.
   - Re-arrange rdma stats to reduce false cacheline sharing.
   - Various rdma cleanups and optimisations.
   - Refactor the NFSv4.1 exchange id code and clean up the code.
   - Const-ify all instances of struct rpc_xprt_ops

  Bugfixes:
   - Fix the NFSv2 'sec=' mount option.
   - NFSv4.1: don't use machine credentials for CLOSE when using
     'sec=sys'
   - Fix the NFSv3 GRANT callback when the port changes on the server.
   - Fix livelock issues with COMMIT
   - NFSv4: Use correct inode in _nfs4_opendata_to_nfs4_state() when
     doing and NFSv4.1 open by filehandle"

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.
