Merge tag 'standardize-docs' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation format standardization from Jonathan Corbet:
"This series converts a number of top-level documents to the RST format
without incorporating them into the Sphinx tree. The hope is to bring
some uniformity to kernel documentation and, perhaps more importantly,
have our existing docs serve as an example of the desired formatting
for those that will be added later.
Mauro has gone through and fixed up a lot of top-level documentation
files to make them conform to the RST format, but without moving or
renaming them in any way. This will help when we incorporate the ones
we want to keep into the Sphinx doctree, but the real purpose is to
bring a bit of uniformity to our documentation and let the top-level
docs serve as examples for those writing new ones"
