Arnd Bergmann d3cd3b5501 Arm FF-A updates for v6.7
The main addition is the initial support for the notifications and
 memory transaction descriptor changes added in FF-A v1.1 specification.
 
 The notification mechanism enables a requester/sender endpoint to notify
 a service provider/receiver endpoint about an event with non-blocking
 semantics. A notification is akin to the doorbell between two endpoints
 in a communication protocol that is based upon the doorbell/mailbox
 mechanism.
 
 The framework is responsible for the delivery of the notification from
 the ender to the receiver without blocking the sender. The receiver
 endpoint relies on the OS scheduler for allocation of CPU cycles to
 handle a notification.
 
 OS is referred as the receiver’s scheduler in the context of notifications.
 The framework is responsible for informing the receiver’s scheduler that
 the receiver must be run since it has a pending notification.
 
 The series also includes support for the new format of memory transaction
 descriptors introduced in v1.1 specification.
 
 Apart from the main additions, it includes minor fixes to re-enable FF-A
 drivers usage of 32bit mode of messaging and kernel warning due to the
 missing assignment of IDR allocation ID to the FFA device. It also adds
 emitting 'modalias' to the base attribute of FF-A devices.

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.
