Linus Torvalds ee2fe81cdc It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all over:
- Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the "literal
   include" mode.
 
 - Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
   kernel-doc technical debt.  The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
   converted to Python and updated for current systems.
 
 - A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate HTML
   redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site hosting the
   rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.
 
 - Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink protocol.
 
 - A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.
 
 ...and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes, etc.
