Subject: [GIT PULL lkmm] LKMM commits for v5.15

Hello, Ingo!

This pull request contains changes for the Linux-kernel memory model
(LKMM).  These changes focus on documentation, providing additional
examples and use cases.  These have been posted to LKML:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210721211003.869892-1-paulmck@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210721211003.869892-2-paulmck@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210721211003.869892-3-paulmck@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210721211003.869892-4-paulmck@kernel.org/

They have been exposed to -next and the kernel test robot, not that these
services do all that much for documentation changes.
