Here is one fix, and 3 documentation updates for 5.18-rc7. The fix is for the firmware loader which resolves a long-reported problem where the credentials of the firmware loader could be set to a userspace process without enough permissions to actually load the firmware image. Many Android vendors have been reporting this for quite some time. The documentation updates are for the embargoed-hardware-issues.rst file to add a new entry, change an existing one, and sort the list to make changes easier in the future. All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.
