Merge tag 'for-linus-20180204' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull more block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "Most of this is fixes and not new code/features:

   - skd fix from Arnd, fixing a build error dependent on sla allocator
     type.

   - blk-mq scheduler discard merging fixes, one from me and one from
     Keith. This fixes a segment miscalculation for blk-mq-sched, where
     we mistakenly think two segments are physically contigious even
     though the request isn't carrying real data. Also fixes a bio-to-rq
     merge case.

   - Don't re-set a bit on the buffer_head flags, if it's already set.
     This can cause scalability concerns on bigger machines and
     workloads. From Kemi Wang.

   - Add BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE return value to blk-mq, allowing us to
     distuingish between a local (device related) resource starvation
     and a global one. The latter might happen without IO being in
     flight, so it has to be handled a bit differently. From Ming"

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.
