Linus Torvalds 0d82044e1b powerpc fixes for 5.1 #6
A one-liner to make our Radix MMU support depend on HUGETLB_PAGE. We use some of
 the hugetlb inlines (eg. pud_huge()) when operating on the linear mapping and if
 they're compiled into empty wrappers we can corrupt memory.
 
 Then two fixes to our VFIO IOMMU code. The first is not a regression but fixes
 the locking to avoid a user-triggerable deadlock.
 
 The second does fix a regression since rc1, and depends on the first fix. It
 makes it possible to run guests with large amounts of memory again (~256GB).
 
 Thanks to:
   Alexey Kardashevskiy.

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.
