Linus Torvalds e43d40b321 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull mqueuefs revert from Eric Biederman:
 "This fixes a regression that came in the merge window for v4.16.

  The problem is that the permissions for mounting and using the
  mqueuefs filesystem are broken. The necessary permission check is
  missing letting people who should not be able to mount mqueuefs mount
  mqueuefs. The field sb->s_user_ns is set incorrectly not allowing the
  mounter of mqueuefs to remount and otherwise have proper control over
  the filesystem.

  Al Viro and I see the path to the necessary fixes differently and I am
  not even certain at this point he actually sees all of the necessary
  fixes. Given a couple weeks we can probably work something out but I
  don't see the review being resolved in time for the final v4.16. I
  don't want v4.16 shipping with a nasty regression. So unfortunately I
  am sending a revert"

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.
