Linus Torvalds 33563138ac Driver core changes for 5.18-rc2
Here are 2 small driver core changes for 5.18-rc2.
 
 They are the final bits in the removal of the default_attrs field in
 struct kobj_type.  I had to wait until after 5.18-rc1 for all of the
 changes to do this came in through different development trees, and then
 one new user snuck in.  So this series has 2 changes:
 	- removal of the default_attrs field in the powerpc/pseries/vas
 	  code.  Change has been acked by the PPC maintainers to come
 	  through this tree
 	- removal of default_attrs from struct kobj_type now that all
 	  in-kernel users are removed.  This cleans up the kobject code
 	  a little bit and removes some duplicated functionality that
 	  confused people (now there is only one way to do default
 	  groups.)
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for all of this week with no
 reported problems.

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.
