Pavel Tatashin says:

====================
sparc64: context wrap fixes

This patch series contains fixes for context wrap: when we are out of
context ids, and need to get a new version.

It fixes memory corruption issues which happen when more than number of
context ids (currently set to 8K) number of processes are started
simultaneously, and processes can get a wrong context.

sparc64: new context wrap:
- contains explanation of new wrap method, and also explanation of races
  that it solves
sparc64: reset mm cpumask after wrap
- explains issue of not reseting cpu mask on a wrap
====================

README

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.
