Linus Torvalds a9c55d58bc powerpc fixes for 5.1 #2
One fix to prevent runtime allocation of 16GB pages when running in a VM (as
 opposed to bare metal), because it doesn't work.
 
 A small fix to our recently added KCOV support to exempt some more code from
 being instrumented.
 
 Plus a few minor build fixes, a small dead code removal and a defconfig update.
 
 Thanks to:
   Alexey Kardashevskiy, Aneesh Kumar K.V, Christophe Leroy, Jason Yan, Joel
   Stanley, Mahesh Salgaonkar, Mathieu Malaterre.

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.
