Linus Torvalds e59a039119 s390 fixes for 6.17-rc6
- ptep_modify_prot_start() may be called in a loop, which might lead
   to the preempt_count overflow due to the unnecessary preemption
   disabling. Do not disable preemption to prevent the overflow
 
 - Events of type PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE are not tested for sampling and
   return -EOPNOTSUPP eventually. Instead, deny all sampling events by
   CPUMF counter facility and return -ENOENT to allow other PMUs to be
   tried
 
 - The PAI PMU driver returns -EINVAL if an event out of its range.
   That aborts a search for an alternative PMU driver. Instead, return
   -ENOENT to allow other PMUs to be tried

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.
