Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon:
 "The critical one here is a fix for fpsimd register corruption across
  signals which was introduced by the SVE support code (the register
  files overlap), but the others are worth having as well.

  Summary:

   - Fix FP register corruption when SVE is not available or in use

   - Fix out-of-tree module build failure when CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS=y

   - Missing 'const' generating errors with LTO builds

   - Remove unsupported events from Cortex-A73 PMU description

   - Removal of stale and incorrect comments"

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.
