Pull percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:
"Late percpu pull request for v4.16-rc6.
- percpu allocator pool replenishing no longer triggers OOM or
warning messages.
Also, the alloc interface now understands __GFP_NORETRY and
__GFP_NOWARN. This is to allow avoiding OOMs from userland
triggered actions like bpf map creation.
Also added cond_resched() in alloc loop.
- perpcu allocation now can be interrupted by kill sigs to avoid
deadlocking OOM killer.
- Added Dennis Zhou as a co-maintainer.
He has rewritten the area map allocator, understands most of the
code base and has been responsive for all bug reports"

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.
