Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "Hopefully the last two powerpc fixes for 4.12.

  The CXL one is larger than I'd usually send at rc7, but it fixes new
  code this cycle, so better to have it working for the release. It was
  actually sent a few weeks back but got blocked in testing behind
  another fix that was causing issues.

  We are still tracking one crash in v4.12-rc7, but only one person has
  reproduced it and the commit identified by bisect doesn't touch any of
  the relevant code, so I think it's 50/50 whether that commit is
  actually the problem or it's some code layout / toolchain issue.

  Two fixes for code we merged this cycle:

   - cxl: Fixes for Coherent Accelerator Interface Architecture 2.0

   - Avoid miscompilation w/GCC 4.6.3 on 32-bit - don't inline
     copy_to/from_user()

  Thanks to Al Viro, Larry Finger, Christophe Lombard"

============

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.
