Pull kselftest updates from Shuah Khan:
- ftrace test fixes to check for required filter files and kprobe args.
- Kselftest build/cross-build dependency check script to make it easier
for test ring admins/users to configure build systems correctly for
build/cross-build kselftests. Currently checks library dependencies.
- Checks if Kselftests can be built/cross-built on a system running
compile test on a trivial C file with LDLIBS specified for each
individual test in their Makefiles.
- Prints suggested target list for a system filtering out tests
failed the build dependency check from the TARGETS in Selftests
the main Makefile when optional -p is specified.
- Prints pass/fail dependency check for each tests/sub-test.
- Prints pass/fail targets and libraries.
- Default: runs dependency checks on all tests.
- Optional test name can be specified to check dependencies for it.

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.
