Pull arm TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL fixup from Jens Axboe:
 "Hui Tang reported a performance regressions with _TIF_WORK_MASK in
  newer kernels, which he tracked to a change that went into 5.11. After
  this change, we'll call do_work_pending() more often than we need to,
  because we're now testing bits 0..15 rather than just 0..7.

  Shuffle the bits around to avoid this"

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

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.
