Linus Torvalds 394e4f5d58 initramfs: avoid "label at end of compound statement" error
Commit 17a9be3174 ("initramfs: Always do fput() and load modules after
rootfs populate") introduced an error for the

    CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y

case, because even though the code looks fine, the compiler really wants
a statement after a label, or you'll get complaints:

  init/initramfs.c: In function 'populate_rootfs':
  init/initramfs.c:644:2: error: label at end of compound statement

That commit moved the subsequent statements to outside the compound
statement, leaving the label without any associated statements.

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.
