Merge series from Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@sang-engineering.com>: There is a confusing pattern in the kernel to use a variable named 'timeout' to store the result of wait_for_*() functions causing patterns like: timeout = wait_for_completion_timeout(...) if (!timeout) return -ETIMEDOUT; with all kinds of permutations. Use 'time_left' as a variable to make the code obvious and self explaining. This is part of a tree-wide series. The rest of the patches can be found here (some parts may still be WIP): git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux.git i2c/time_left Because these patches are generated, I audit them before sending. This is why I will send series step by step. Build bot is happy with these patches, though. No functional changes intended.
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 reStructuredText 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.
