Subject: [PATCH memory-model 0/8] LKMM updates for v5.11

Hello!

This series provides LKMM updates:

1.	Document that the LKMM can easily miss control dependencies.

2.	Move Documentation description to Documentation/README.

3.	Document categories of ordering primitives.

4.	Fix a typo in CPU MEMORY BARRIERS section.

5.	Add a glossary of LKMM terms.

6.	Add types to litmus tests.

7.	Use "buf" and "flag" for message-passing tests.

8.	Label MP tests' producers and consumers.

						Thanx, Paul
