2019-07-15docs: laptops: convert to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab1-149/+0
Rename the laptops documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2008-10-13ata: Add documentation for hard disk shock protection interface (v3)Elias Oltmanns1-0/+149
Put some information (and pointers to more) into the kernel's doc tree, describing briefly the interface to the kernel's disk head unloading facility. Information about how to set up a complete shock protection system under GNU/Linux can be found on the web and is referenced accordingly. v3: Here is some final polish including various spelling corrections pointed out by Grant Grundler and Peter Moulder. Also, I have added some information about the timing constraints related to disk head parking. The patch looks more impressive than it really is and I think it would be alright just to incorporate it into the original patch so as not to clutter up the git log.
