To cope with the changes in:12c89130a5("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Add write-protection-fault handling")60622d6822("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Return bytes remaining")bd131544aa("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Add labels for __memcpy_mcsafe() write fault handling")da7bc9c57e("x86/asm/memcpy_mcsafe: Remove loop unrolling") This needed introducing a file with a copy of the mcsafe_handle_tail() function, that is used in the new memcpy_64.S file, as well as a dummy mcsafe_test.h header.

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.
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.
