Linus Torvalds c545cd3276 x86/mm changes for v6.14:
- The biggest changes are the TLB flushing scalability optimizations,
    to update the mm_cpumask lazily and related changes. This feature
    has both a track record and a continued risk of performance regressions,
    so it was already delayed by a cycle - but it's all 100% perfect now™.
    (Rik van Riel)
 
  - Also miscellaneous fixes and cleanups. (Gautam Somani,
    Kirill A. Shutemov, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior)

README

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.
