Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
"Three small important fixes for the parisc architecture:
- Export __cmpxchg_u64() symbol on 32bit kernel too. This unbreaks
building the kernel with ixgbe kernel module. From Guenter Roeck.
- Fix 64-bit atomic cmpxchg kernel helper function for 32-bit kernel
in LWS code for userspace. This unbreaks e.g. the 64-bit variant of
the glibc function __sync_fetch_and_add() with a 32-bit parisc
kernel. From John David Anglin, tagged for backport to v3.13+.
- Detect nonsynchronous CPU-internal cr16 cycle counters more
reliable. This avoids stalled CPU warnings by the kernel soft
lockup detector. From me, tagged for backport to v4.13+"
* 'parisc-4.14-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux:
parisc: Fix detection of nonsynchronous cr16 cycle counters
parisc: Export __cmpxchg_u64 unconditionally
parisc: Fix double-word compare and exchange in LWS code on 32-bit kernels
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
