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 reStructuredText 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.

When the power supply is shared with other peripherals the reset line can be wired in such a way that it can remain deasserted regardless of whether the supply is on or not. This is important as it can be used to avoid holding the controller in reset for extended periods of time when it remains powered, something which can lead to increased power consumption. Leaving reset deasserted also avoids leaking current through the reset circuitry pull-up resistors. Add a new 'no-reset-on-power-off' devicetree property which can be used by the OS to determine when reset needs to be asserted on power down. Note that this property can also be used when the supply cannot be turned off by the OS at all. Signed-off-by:Johan Hovold <johan+linaro@kernel.org> Reviewed-by:
