Merge tag 'docs-4.18' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"There's been a fair amount of work in the docs tree this time around,
including:
- Extensive RST conversions and organizational work in the
memory-management docs thanks to Mike Rapoport.
- An update of Documentation/features from Andrea Parri and a script
to keep it updated.
- Various LICENSES updates from Thomas, along with a script to check
SPDX tags.
- Work to fix dangling references to documentation files; this
involved a fair number of one-liner comment changes outside of
Documentation/
... and the usual list of documentation improvements, typo fixes, etc"
