Now that the latex_documents are handled automatically, we can
remove those extra conf.py files.

There are lots of documents that belong to the admin-guide but
are on random places (most under Documentation root dir).

Move them to the admin guide.

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"

"If the MBA is specified in MB then user can enter the max b/w in MB"
is a tautology. How can the user know if the schemata takes a percentage
or a MB/s value?

This is referring to whether the software controller is interpreting
the schemata's value. Make this clear.

"L2 cache does not support code and data prioritization". This isn't
true, elsewhere the document says it can be enabled with the cdpl2
mount option.

While we're here, these sample strings have lower-case code/data,
which isn't how the kernel exports them.
