2019-08-12Documentation/arm/samsung-s3c24xx: Remove stray U+FEFF character to fix titleJonathan Neuschäfer
It seems a UTF-8 byte order mark (the least useful kind of BOM...) snuck into the file and broke Sphinx's detection of the title line. Besides making arm/samsung-s3c24xx/index.html look a little better, this patch also confines the non-index pages in arm/samsung-s3c24xx to their own table of contents.

2019-08-12Documentation: sphinx: Don't parse socket() as identifier referenceJonathan Neuschäfer
With the introduction of Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py, socket() is parsed as a reference to the in-kernel definition of socket. Sphinx then decides that struct socket is a good match, which is usually not intended, when the syscall is meant instead. This was observed in Documentation/networking/af_xdp.rst. Prevent socket() from being misinterpreted by adding it to the Skipfuncs list in automarkup.py.

2019-07-31docs: fs: cifs: convert to ReST and add to admin-guide bookMauro Carvalho Chehab
The filenames for cifs documentation is not using the same convention as almost all Kernel documents is using. So, rename them to a more appropriate name. Then, manually convert the documentation files for CIFS to ReST. By doing a manual conversion, we can preserve the original author's style, while making it to look more like the other Kernel documents. Most of the conversion here is trivial. The most complex one was the README file (which was renamed to usage.rst). Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2019-07-31docs: fs: convert porting to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab
This file has its own proper style, except that, after a while, the coding style gets violated and whitespaces are placed on different ways. As Sphinx and ReST are very sentitive to whitespace differences, I had to opt if each entry after required/mandatory/... fields should start with zero spaces or with a tab. I opted to start them all from the zero position, in order to avoid needing to break lines with more than 80 columns, with would make harder for review. Most of the other changes at porting.rst were made to use an unified notation with works nice as a text file while also produce a good html output after being parsed.
