Linus Torvalds e0d072250a Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A collection of fixes for this merge window, either fixes for existing
  issues, or parts that were waiting for acks to come in. This pull
  request contains:

   - Allocation of nvme queues on the right node from Shaohua.

     This was ready long before the merge window, but waiting on an ack
     from Bjorn on the PCI bit. Now that we have that, the three patches
     can go in.

   - Two fixes for blk-mq-sched with nvmeof, which uses hctx specific
     request allocations. This caused an oops. One part from Sagi, one
     part from Omar.

   - A loop partition scan deadlock fix from Omar, fixing a regression
     in this merge window.

   - A three-patch series from Keith, closing up a hole on clearing out
     requests on shutdown/resume.

   - A stable fix for nbd from Josef, fixing a leak of sockets.

   - Two fixes for a regression in this window from Jan, fixing a
     problem with one of his earlier patches dealing with queue vs bdi
     life times.

   - A fix for a regression with virtio-blk, causing an IO stall if
     scheduling is used. From me.

   - A fix for an io context lock ordering problem. From me"

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.
