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.

Commit 01c9348c powerpc: Use hardware RNG for arch_get_random_seed_* not arch_get_random_* updated arch_get_random_[int|long]() to be NOPs, and moved the hardware RNG backing to arch_get_random_seed_[int|long]() instead. However, it failed to take into account that arch_get_random_int() was implemented in terms of arch_get_random_long(), and so we ended up with a version of the former that is essentially a NOP as well. Fix this by calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from arch_get_random_seed_int() instead.
