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.

Patch series "hfs: fix various errors", v2. This series ultimately aims to address a lockdep warning in hfs_find_init reported by Syzbot [1]. The work done for this led to the discovery of another bug, and the Syzkaller repro test also reveals an invalid memory access error after clearing the lockdep warning. Hence, this series is broken up into three patches: 1. Add a missing call to hfs_find_exit for an error path in hfs_fill_super 2. Fix memory mapping in hfs_bnode_read by fixing calls to kmap 3. Add lock nesting notation to tell lockdep that the observed locking hierarchy is safe This patch (of 3): Before exiting hfs_fill_super, the struct hfs_find_data used in hfs_find_init should be passed to hfs_find_exit to be cleaned up, and to release the lock held on the btree. The call to hfs_find_exit is missing from an error path. We add it back in by consolidating calls to hfs_find_exit for error paths.
