The conclusion of a recent discussion about the new warnings
reported by gcc 7 is that the new warnings reported when building
with W=1 should be suppressed. However, gcc 7 still warns about
fall-through in switch statements when building with W=1. Suppress
these warnings by annotating the SCSI core properly.

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.
