Patch series "epoll: some miscellaneous optimizations". The following are some incremental optimizations on some of the epoll core. Each patch has the details, but together, the series is seen to shave off measurable cycles on a number of systems and workloads. For example, on a 40-core IB, a pipetest as well as parallel epoll_wait() benchmark show around a 20-30% increase in raw operations per second when the box is fully occupied (incremental thread counts), and up to 15% performance improvement with lower counts. Passes ltp epoll related testcases. This patch(of 6): All callers pass the EP_MAX_NESTS constant already, so lets simplify this a tad and get rid of the redundant parameter for nested eventpolls.

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.
