Pull hmm updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Ralph has been working on nouveau's use of hmm_range_fault() and
migrate_vma() which resulted in this small series. It adds reporting
of the page table order from hmm_range_fault() and some optimization
of migrate_vma():
- Report the size of the page table mapping out of hmm_range_fault().
This makes it easier to establish a large/huge/etc mapping in the
device's page table.
- Allow devices to ignore the invalidations during migration in cases
where the migration is not going to change pages.
For instance migrating pages to a device does not require the
device to invalidate pages already in the device.
- Update nouveau and hmm_tests to use the above"

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.
