Linus Torvalds 23022f5456 dma-mapping updates for Linux 6.16:
- new two step DMA mapping API, which is is a first step to a long path
   to provide alternatives to scatterlist and to remove hacks, abuses and
   design mistakes related to scatterlists; this new approach optimizes
   some calls to DMA-IOMMU layer and cache maintenance by batching them,
   reduces memory usage as it is no need to store mapped DMA addresses to
   unmap them, and reduces some function call overhead; it is a combination
   effort of many people, lead and developed by Christoph Hellwig and Leon
   Romanovsky

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.
