Linus Torvalds 78273df7f6 header cleanups for 6.8
The goal is to get sched.h down to a type only header, so the main thing
 happening in this patchset is splitting out various _types.h headers and
 dependency fixups, as well as moving some things out of sched.h to
 better locations.
 
 This is prep work for the memory allocation profiling patchset which
 adds new sched.h interdepencencies.
 
 Testing - it's been in -next, and fixes from pretty much all
 architectures have percolated in - nothing major.

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.
