Pull AFS fixes from David Howells:
 "Here's a set of fixes for AFS:

   - Use struct_size() for kzalloc() size calculation.

   - When calling YFS.CreateFile rather than AFS.CreateFile, it is
     possible to create a file with a file lock already held. The
     default value indicating no lock required is actually -1, not 0.

   - Fix an oops in inode/vnode validation if the target inode doesn't
     have a server interest assigned (ie. a server that will notify us
     of changes by third parties).

   - Fix refcounting of keys in file locking.

   - Fix a race in refcounting asynchronous operations in the event of
     an error during request transmission. The provision of a dedicated
     function to get an extra ref on a call is split into a separate
     commit"

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.
