Merge tag 'docs-4.10' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
 "These are the documentation changes for 4.10.

  It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion
  continues. Highlights include:

   - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but
     should be more solid now.

   - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx. Only 27 to
     go... Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and
     integrated.

   - Images in binary formats have been replaced with more
     source-friendly versions.

   - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of
     various files discussed at the kernel summit.

   - New documentation for the device_link mechanism.

  ... and, of course, lots of typo fixes and small updates"
