Pull MIPS fixes from Paul Burton:
"A collection of MIPS fixes:
- Fill the struct cacheinfo shared_cpu_map field with sensible
values, notably avoiding issues with perf which was unhappy in the
absence of these values.
- A boot fix for Loongson 2E & 2F machines which was fallout from
some refactoring performed this cycle.
- A Kconfig dependency fix for the Loongson CPU HWMon driver.
- A couple of VDSO fixes, ensuring gettimeofday() behaves
appropriately for kernel configurations that don't include support
for a clocksource the VDSO can use & fixing the calling convention
for the n32 & n64 VDSOs which would previously clobber the $gp/$28
register.
- A build fix for vmlinuz compressed images which were
inappropriately building with -fsanitize-coverage despite not being
part of the kernel proper, then failing to link due to the missing
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() function.
- A couple of eBPF JIT fixes, including disabling it for MIPS32 due
to a large number of issues with the code generated there &
reflecting ISA dependencies in Kconfig to enforce that systems
which don't support the JIT must include the interpreter"

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.
