Pull io_uring fix from Jens Axboe:
 "Just a single fixup for a change we made in this release, which caused
  a regression in sometimes missing fdinfo output if the SQPOLL thread
  had the lock held when fdinfo output was retrieved.

  This brings us back on par with what we had before, where just the
  main uring_lock will prevent that output. We'd love to get rid of that
  too, but that is beyond the scope of this release and will have to
  wait for 6.8"

============

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.
