Pull vfs updates from Al Viro: "Assorted patches from Miklos. An interesting part here is /proc/mounts stuff..." The "/proc/mounts stuff" is using a cursor for keeeping the location data while traversing the mount listing. Also probably worth noting is the addition of faccessat2(), which takes an additional set of flags to specify how the lookup is done (AT_EACCESS, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, AT_EMPTY_PATH). * 'from-miklos' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: vfs: add faccessat2 syscall vfs: don't parse "silent" option vfs: don't parse "posixacl" option vfs: don't parse forbidden flags statx: add mount_root statx: add mount ID statx: don't clear STATX_ATIME on SB_RDONLY uapi: deprecate STATX_ALL utimensat: AT_EMPTY_PATH support vfs: split out access_override_creds() proc/mounts: add cursor aio: fix async fsync creds vfs: allow unprivileged whiteout creation
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.
