Linus Torvalds 5160bcce5c f2fs-for-5.1-rc1
We've continued mainly to fix bugs in this round, as f2fs has been shipped
 in more devices. Especially, we've focused on stabilizing checkpoint=disable
 feature, and provided some interfaces for QA.
 
 Enhancement:
  - expose FS_NOCOW_FL for pin_file
  - run discard jobs at unmount time with timeout
  - tune discarding thread to avoid idling which consumes power
  - some checking codes to address vulnerabilities
  - give random value to i_generation
  - shutdown with more flags for QA
 
 Bug fix:
  - clean up stale objects when mount is failed along with checkpoint=disable
  - fix system being stuck due to wrong count by atomic writes
  - handle some corrupted disk cases
  - fix a deadlock in f2fs_read_inline_dir
 
 We've also added some minor build errors and clean-up patches.

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.
