Linus Torvalds 8c60969856 ARM: SoC platform updates for 4.15
Most of the commits are for defconfig changes, to enable newly added
 drivers or features that people have started using. For the changed
 lines lines, we have mostly cleanups, the affected platforms are
 OMAP, Versatile, EP93xx, Samsung, Broadcom, i.MX, and Actions.
 
 The largest single change is the introduction of the TI "sysc" bus
 driver, with the intention of cleaning up more legacy code.
 
 Two new SoC platforms get added this time:
 - Allwinner R40 is a modernized version of the A20 chip, now
   with a Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A7. According to the manufacturer,
   it is intended for "Smart Hardware"
 - Broadcom Hurricane 2 (Aka Strataconnect BCM5334X) is a family
   of chips meant for managed gigabit ethernet switches, based
   around a Cortex-A9 CPU.
 
 Finally, we gain SMP support for two platforms: Renesas R-Car E2
 and Amlogic Meson8/8b, which were previously added but only supported
 uniprocessor operation.

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.
