Here's some small fixes for 5.10-rc2 and a big driver removal. The fixes are for some reported issues in the interconnect and coresight drivers, nothing major. The "big" driver removal is the MIC drivers have been asked to be removed as the hardware never shipped and Intel no longer wants to maintain something that no one can use. This is welcomed by many as the DMA usage of these drivers was "interesting" and the security people were starting to question some issues that were starting to be found in the codebase. Note, one of the subsystems for this driver, the "VOP" code, will probably come back in future kernel versions as it was looking to potentially solve some PCIe virtualization issues that a number of other vendors were wanting to solve. But as-is, this codebase didn't work for anyone else so no actual functionality is being removed. All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

README
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.
