Pull KUnit updates from Shuah Khan:
- a new feature that adds APIs for managing devices introducing a set
of helper functions which allow devices (internally a struct
kunit_device) to be created and managed by KUnit.
These devices will be automatically unregistered on test exit. These
helpers can either use a user-provided struct device_driver, or have
one automatically created and managed by KUnit. In both cases, the
device lives on a new kunit_bus.
- changes to switch drm/tests to use kunit devices
- several fixes and enhancements to attribute feature
- changes to reorganize deferred action function introducing
KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER
- new feature adds ability to run tests after boot using debugfs
- fixes and enhancements to string-stream-test:
- parse ERR_PTR in string_stream_destroy()
- unchecked dereference in bug fix in debugfs_print_results()
- handling errors from alloc_string_stream()
- NULL-dereference bug fix in kunit_init_suite()

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.
