Linus Torvalds ee96dd9614 libnvdimm for 5.18
- Add perf support for nvdimm events, initially only for 'papr_scm'
   devices.
 
 - Deprecate the 'block aperture' support in libnvdimm, it only ever
   existed in the specification, not in shipping product.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The update for this cycle includes the deprecation of block-aperture
  mode and a new perf events interface for the papr_scm nvdimm driver.

  The perf events approach was acked by PeterZ.

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.
