Pull vfs stable fodder fixes from Al Viro: - acct_on() fix for deadlock caught by overlayfs folks - autofs RCU use-after-free SNAFU (->d_manage() can be called locklessly, so we need to RCU-delay freeing the objects it looks at) - (hopefully) the end of "do we need freeing this dentry RCU-delayed" whack-a-mole. * 'stable-fodder' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: autofs: fix use-after-free in lockless ->d_manage() dcache: sort the freeing-without-RCU-delay mess for good. acct_on(): don't mess with freeze protection
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.
