Linus Torvalds d25e436c4b spi: Updates for v4.12
There's quite a lot of small driver specific fixes and enhancements in
 this release but the main activity has been around the loopback and
 spidev test drivers which is good to see as it should hopefully help
 improve the quality of all the drivers as people start to make use of
 the new code:
 
  - Additional tests in the loopback test driver for vmalloc()
    compatibility and around delays together with fixes for existing
    tests.
  - Support for testing continuous data transfer for use in soak testing.
  - Device property support for board info platforms.
  - Support for registering empty sets of devices via board info (useful
    when writing code to enumerate hardware automatically).

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.
