Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Akinobu Mita 30f92d62e5 nvme-pci: use appropriate initial chunk size for HMB allocation
The initial chunk size for host memory buffer allocation is currently
PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER.  MAX_ORDER order allocation is usually failed
without CONFIG_DMA_CMA.  So the HMB allocation is retried with chunk size
PAGE_SIZE << (MAX_ORDER - 1) in general, but there is no problem if the
retry allocation works correctly.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
