Merge tag 'docs-6.19' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This has been another busy cycle for documentation, with a lot of
build-system thrashing. That work should slow down from here on out.
- The various scripts and tools for documentation were spread out in
several directories; now they are (almost) all coalesced under
tools/docs/. The holdout is the kernel-doc script, which cannot be
easily moved without some further thought.
- As the amount of Python code increases, we are accumulating modules
that are imported by multiple programs. These modules have been
pulled together under tools/lib/python/ -- at least, for
documentation-related programs. There is other Python code in the
tree that might eventually want to move toward this organization.
- The Perl kernel-doc.pl script has been removed. It is no longer
used by default, and nobody has missed it, least of all anybody who
actually had to look at it.
- The docs build was controlled by a complex mess of makefilese that
few dared to touch. Mauro has moved that logic into a new program
(tools/docs/sphinx-build-wrapper) that, with any luck at all, will
be far easier to understand and maintain.
- The get_feat.pl program, used to access information under
Documentation/features/, has been rewritten in Python, bringing an
end to the use of Perl in the docs subsystem.
- The top-level README file has been reorganized into a more
reader-friendly presentation.
- A lot of Chinese translation additions
- Typo fixes and documentation updates as usual"
