Pull tasklets API update from Kees Cook:
"These are the infrastructure updates needed to support converting the
tasklet API to something more modern (and hopefully for removal
further down the road).
There is a 300-patch series waiting in the wings to get set out to
subsystem maintainers, but these changes need to be present in the
kernel first. Since this has some treewide changes, I carried this
series for -next instead of paining Thomas with it in -tip, but it's
got his Ack.
This is similar to the timer_struct modernization from a while back,
but not nearly as messy (I hope). :)
- Prepare for tasklet API modernization (Romain Perier, Allen Pais,
Kees Cook)"

============
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.
