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.

Pull input fixes from Dmitry Torokhov:
"A couple more driver quirks, now enabling newer trackpoints from
Synaptics for real"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input:
Input: i8042 - add nopnp quirk for Acer Aspire 5 A515
Input: trackpoint - enable Synaptics trackpoints
One of the entries has three fields "mistake||correction||correction"
rather than the expected two fields "mistake||correction". Fix it.

Touchpad on this laptop is not detected properly during boot, as PNP
enumerates (wrongly) AUX port as disabled on this machine.
Fix that by adding this board (with admittedly quite funny DMI
identifiers) to nopnp quirk list.

memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs can be used to skip page allocation
on CMA area, but, there is a missing case and the page on CMA area could
be allocated even if APIs are used. This patch handles this case to fix
the potential issue.
For now, these APIs are used to prevent long-term pinning on the CMA
page. When the long-term pinning is requested on the CMA page, it is
migrated to the non-CMA page before pinning. This non-CMA page is
allocated by using memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs. If APIs doesn't
work as intended, the CMA page is allocated and it is pinned for a long
time. This long-term pin for the CMA page causes cma_alloc() failure
and it could result in wrong behaviour on the device driver who uses the
cma_alloc().
Missing case is an allocation from the pcplist. MIGRATE_MOVABLE pcplist
could have the pages on CMA area so we need to skip it if ALLOC_CMA
isn't specified.

The routine that applies debug flags to the kmem_cache slabs
inadvertantly prevents non-debug flags from being applied to those
same objects. That is, if slub_debug=<flag>,<slab> is specified,
non-debugged slabs will end up having flags of zero, and the slabs
may be unusable.
Fix this by including the input flags for non-matching slabs with the
contents of slub_debug, so that the caches are created as expected
alongside any debugging options that may be requested. With this, we
can remove the check for a NULL slub_debug_string, since it's covered
by the loop itself.
