Linus Torvalds 319f1e04c7 Merge branch 'x86-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 kexec fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single fix for the WBINVD issue introduced by the SME support which
  causes kexec fails on non AMD/SME capable CPUs. Issue WBINVD only when
  the CPU has SME and avoid doing so in a loop"

[ Side note: this patch fixes the problem, but it isn't entirely clear
  why it is required. The wbinvd should just work regardless, but there
  seems to be some system - as opposed to CPU - issue, since the wbinvd
  causes more problems later in the shutdown sequence, but wbinvd
  instructions while the system is still active are not problematic.

  Possibly some SMI or pending machine check issue on the affected system ]

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.
