Pull afs updates from David Howells:
"Four fixes:
- add a missing put
- two fixes to reset the address iteration cursor correctly
- fix setting up the fileserver iteration cursor.
Two cleanups:
- remove some dead code
- rearrange a function to be more logically laid out
And one new feature:
- Support AFS dynamic root.
With this one should be able to do, say:
mkdir /afs
mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn
to create a dynamic root and then, provided you have keyutils
installed, do:
ls /afs/grand.central.org
and:
ls /afs/umich.edu
to list the root volumes of both those organisations' AFS cells
without requiring any other setup (the kernel upcall to a program
in the keyutils package to do DNS access as does NFS)"

Linux kernel ============ 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.
