Now that several arch documents were converted to ReST,
add their indexes to Documentation/index.rst and remove the
:orphan:  from them.

Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:

   - A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
     than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with
     other trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on
     the wings that, I think, will go to you directly later on.

   - A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos,
     and one on Spectre vulnerabilities.

   - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic
     markup of function() references because some people, for reasons I
     will never understand, were of the opinion that
     :c:func:``function()`` is unattractive and not fun to type.

   - We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.

   - Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - arm64 support for syscall emulation via PTRACE_SYSEMU{,_SINGLESTEP}

 - Wire up VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS for arm64, allowing the core code to
   manage the permissions of executable vmalloc regions more strictly

 - Slight performance improvement by keeping softirqs enabled while
   touching the FPSIMD/SVE state (kernel_neon_begin/end)

 - Expose a couple of ARMv8.5 features to user (HWCAP): CondM (new
   XAFLAG and AXFLAG instructions for floating point comparison flags
   manipulation) and FRINT (rounding floating point numbers to integers)

 - Re-instate ARM64_PSEUDO_NMI support which was previously marked as
   BROKEN due to some bugs (now fixed)

 - Improve parking of stopped CPUs and implement an arm64-specific
   panic_smp_self_stop() to avoid warning on not being able to stop
   secondary CPUs during panic

 - perf: enable the ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) on ACPI
   platforms

 - perf: DDR performance monitor support for iMX8QXP

 - cache_line_size() can now be set from DT or ACPI/PPTT if provided to
   cope with a system cache info not exposed via the CPUID registers

 - Avoid warning on hardware cache line size greater than
   ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN if the system is fully coherent

 - arm64 do_page_fault() and hugetlb cleanups

 - Refactor set_pte_at() to avoid redundant READ_ONCE(*ptep)

 - Ignore ACPI 5.1 FADTs reported as 5.0 (infer from the
   'arm_boot_flags' introduced in 5.1)

 - CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE now enabled in defconfig

 - Allow the selection of ARM64_MODULE_PLTS, currently only done via
   RANDOMIZE_BASE (and an erratum workaround), allowing modules to spill

<title>arm64: Update silicon-errata.txt for Neoverse-N1 #1349291</title>

Neoverse-N1 affected by #1349291 may report an Uncontained RAS Error
as Unrecoverable. The kernel's architecture code already considers
Unrecoverable errors as fatal as without kernel-first support no
further error-handling is possible.

Now that KVM attributes SError to the host/guest more precisely
the host's architecture code will always handle host errors that
become pending during world-switch.
Errors misclassified by this errata that affected the guest will be
re-injected to the guest as an implementation-defined SError, which can
be uncontained.

Until kernel-first support is implemented, no workaround is needed
for this issue.

become pending during world-switch.
Errors misclassified by this errata that affected the guest will be
re-injected to the guest as an implementation-defined SError, which can
be uncontained.

Until kernel-first support is implemented, no workaround is needed
for this issue.

ARMv8.5 introduces the FRINT series of instructions for rounding floating
point numbers to integers. Provide a capability to userspace in order to
allow applications to determine if the system supports these instructions.

<title>arm64: Expose ARMv8.5 CondM capability to userspace</title>

ARMv8.5 adds new instructions XAFLAG and AXFLAG to translate the
representation of the results of floating point comparisons between the
native ARM format and an alternative format used by some software. Add
a hwcap allowing userspace to determine if they are present, since we
referred to earlier CondM extensions as FLAGM call these extensions
FLAGM2.

<title>docs: arm64: convert docs to ReST and rename to .rst</title>

The documentation is in a format that is very close to ReST format.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fixing tables markups;
  - adding some lists markups;
  - marking literal blocks;
  - adjust some title markups.

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.
