This cleans up a few titles with extra colons, and removes the
reference to kernel 2.2. The docs don't yet cover *all* of 5.10 or
5.11, but I think they're close enough. Most entries are documented,
and have been checked against current kernels.

Changeset 6b80975c63 ("scripts: kernel-doc: fix typedef parsing")
added support for things like:
typedef unsigned long foo();
However, it caused a regression on this prototype:
typedef bool v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc(const struct v4l2_dv_timings *t, void *handle);
This is only noticed after adding a patch that checks if the
kernel-doc identifier matches the typedef:
./scripts/kernel-doc -none $(git grep '^.. kernel-doc::' Documentation/ |cut -d ' ' -f 3|sort|uniq) 2>&1|grep expecting
include/media/v4l2-dv-timings.h:38: warning: expecting prototype for typedef v4l2_check_dv_timings_fnc. Prototype was for typedef nc instead
The problem is that, with the new parsing logic, it is not
checking for complete words at the type part.
Fix it by adding a \b at the end of each type word at the
regex.

Add support for the same output format as the bash script,
and use its implementation instead of the previous one.
I opted to do such patch in order to have a single script
responsible for parsing Documentation/features and
produce different outputs.
As someone may rely on the past format, which is easy
to parse it, get_feat.pl now gains a new command with
the same output format as the previous script.
As a side effect, the perl script is a lot faster, as it reads
each file only once, instead of parsing files several times
via a for command and grep commands inside it.
This patch also changes the features list order to be
case-insensitive, in order to better match the output of
the existing script.

The Documentation/features contains a set of parseable files.
It is not worth converting them to ReST format, as they're
useful the way it is. It is, however, interesting to parse
them and produce output on different formats:
1) Output the contents of a feature in ReST format;
2) Output what features a given architecture supports;
3) Output a matrix with features x architectures.

Sphinx 3.1 introduced namespaces for C cross-references. With this,
each C domain type/function declaration is put inside the namespace that
was active at the time of its declaration.
Add support for automatic cross-referencing inside C namespaces by
checking whether the corresponding source file had a C namespace Sphinx
directive, and if so, try cross-referencing inside of it before going to
the global scope.
This assumes there's only one namespace (if any) per rst file.

Currently, we do not have any documentation on commit reverts regarding
the requirement of Signed-off-by tag for it. This may be misleading to
the users.
Evaluating MISSING_SIGN_OFF checkpatch warnings on v4.13..v5.8 showed
that 4 out of 11 cases missing a sign-off are revert commits.

Further there was only one user ever.
- Android's loadfont, busybox and console-tools only ever use OP_GET
and OP_SET
- fbset documentation only mentions the kernel cmdline font: option,
not anything else.
- systemd used OP_COPY before release 232 published in Nov 2016
Now unfortunately the crucial report seems to have gone down with
gmane, and the commit message doesn't say much. But the pull request
hints at OP_COPY being broken
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3651
So in other words, this never worked, and the only project which
foolishly every tried to use it, realized that rather quickly too.
Instead of trying to fix security issues here on dead code by adding
missing checks, fix the entire thing by removing the functionality.
Note that systemd code using the OP_COPY function ignored the return
value, so it doesn't matter what we're doing here really - just in
case a lone server somewhere happens to be extremely unlucky and
running an affected old version of systemd. The relevant code from
font_copy_to_all_vcs() in systemd was:
/* copy font from active VT, where the font was uploaded to */
cfo.op = KD_FONT_OP_COPY;
cfo.height = vcs.v_active-1; /* tty1 == index 0 */
(void) ioctl(vcfd, KDFONTOP, &cfo);
Note this just disables the ioctl, garbage collecting the now unused
callbacks is left for -next.
v2: Tetsuo found the old mail, which allowed me to find it on another
archive. Add the link too.

Merge procfs splice read fixes from Christoph Hellwig:
"Greg reported a problem due to the fact that Android tests use procfs
files to test splice, which stopped working with the changes for
set_fs() removal.
This series adds read_iter support for seq_file, and uses those for
various proc files using seq_file to restore splice read support"
[ Side note: Christoph initially had a scripted "move everything over"
patch, which looks fine, but I personally would prefer us to actively
discourage splice() on random files. So this does just the minimal
basic core set of proc file op conversions.
For completeness, and in case people care, that script was
sed -i -e 's/\.proc_read\(\s*=\s*\)seq_read/\.proc_read_iter\1seq_read_iter/g'
but I'll wait and see if somebody has a strong argument for using
splice on random small /proc files before I'd run it on the whole
kernel. - Linus ]
