Linus Torvalds 57fd0b77d6 Merge tag 'afs-20170316' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull AFS fixes from David Howells:
 "Fixes to the AFS filesystem in the kernel.

  They fix a variety of bugs. These include some issues fixed for
  consistency with other AFS implementations:

   - handle AFS mode bits better

   - use the client mtime rather than the server mtime in the protocol

   - handle the server returning more or less data than was requested in
     a FetchData call

   - distinguish mountpoints from symlinks based on the mode bits rather
     than preemptively reading every symlink to find out what it
     actually represents

  One other notable change for the user is that files are now flushed on
  close analogously with other network filesystems"

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.
