Pull Kbuild thin archives updates from Masahiro Yamada:
 "Thin archives migration by Nicholas Piggin.

  THIN_ARCHIVES has been available for a while as an optional feature
  only for PowerPC architecture, but we do not need two different
  intermediate-artifact schemes.

  Using thin archives instead of conventional incremental linking has
  various advantages:

   - save disk space for builds

   - speed-up building a little

   - fix some link issues (for example, allyesconfig on ARM) due to more
     flexibility for the final linking

   - work better with dead code elimination we are planning

  As discussed before, this migration has been done unconditionally so
  that any problems caused by this will show up with "git bisect".

  With testing with 0-day and linux-next, some architectures actually
  showed up problems, but they were trivial and all fixed now"

* tag 'kbuild-thinar-v4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:
  tile: remove unneeded extra-y in Makefile
  kbuild: thin archives make default for all archs
  x86/um: thin archives build fix
  tile: thin archives fix linking
  ia64: thin archives fix linking
  sh: thin archives fix linking
  kbuild: handle libs-y archives separately from built-in.o archives
  kbuild: thin archives use P option to ar
  kbuild: thin archives final link close --whole-archives option
  ia64: remove unneeded extra-y in Makefile.gate
  tile: fix dependency and .*.cmd inclusion for incremental build
  sparc64: Use indirect calls in hamming weight stubs

Make thin archives build the default, but keep the config option
to allow exemptions if any breakage can't be quickly solved.

IBM Verse is a web UI around Lotus Domino mail servers (much like
the Lotus Notes client talks to Domino servers).

For various reasons, it is not at all suitable for kernel development,
all of which have been raised (repeatedly) internally.

Commit 37d69ee30808 ("docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81")
changes one entry of GNU make version in the changes.rst, there's still
one more entry saying that one need version 3.80.  Fix that.

Since 2014, you can't successfully build kernels with GNU Make version
3.80. Example errors:

  $ git describe
  v4.11
  $ make --version | head -1
  GNU Make 3.80
  $ make defconfig
    HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
  scripts/Makefile.host:135: *** missing separator.  Stop.
  make: *** [defconfig] Error 2
  $ make ARCH=arm64 help
  arch/arm64/Makefile:43: *** unterminated call to function `warning': missing `)'.  Stop.
  $ make help >/dev/null
  ./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:25: Extraneous text after `else' directive
  ./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:31: *** only one `else' per conditional.  Stop.
  make: *** [help] Error 2

The first breakage was introduced by commit c8589d1e9e01 ("kbuild:
handle multi-objs dependency appropriately").  Since then (i.e. v3.18),
GNU Make 3.80 has not been able to compile the kernel, but nobody has
ever complained aboutt (or noticed) it.

Even GNU Make 3.81 is more than 10 years old.  It would not hurt to
match the documentation with reality instead of fixing makefiles.

Pull drm u pdates from Dave Airlie:
 "This is the main drm pull request for v4.12. Apart from two fixes
  pulls, everything should have been in drm-next for at least 2 weeks.

  The biggest thing in here is AMD released the public headers for their

In Documentation/process/4.Coding.rst there were a couple of paragraphs
that spilled over the 80 character line length. This was likely caused
when the document was converted to reStructuredText. Re-flow the
paragraphs and make the document references proper reStructuredText
:ref: links.

This also adds the appropriate reStructuredText file heading to
kernel-parameters.rst as referenced by the kernel-parameters link in
this patch.
