Linus Torvalds d49f8a52b1 SCSI misc on 20181024
This is mostly updates of the usual drivers: UFS, esp_scsi, NCR5380,
 qla2xxx, lpfc, libsas, hisi_sas.  In addition there's a set of mostly
 small updates to the target subsystem a set of conversions to the
 generic DMA API, which do have some potential for issues in the older
 drivers but we'll handle those as case by case fixes. A new myrs for
 the DAC960/mylex raid controllers to replace the block based DAC960
 which is also being removed by Jens in this merge window. Plus the
 usual slew of trivial changes.

Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is mostly updates of the usual drivers: UFS, esp_scsi, NCR5380,

  window.

[ "myrs" stands for "MYlex Raid Scsi". Obviously. Silly of me to even
  wonder. There's also a "myrb" driver, where the 'b' stands for
  'block'. Truly, somebody has got mad naming skillz. - Linus ]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
