docs: ioctl-number.txt: convert it to ReST format

2019-07-15T12:20:26+00:00

The conversion itself is simple: add a markup for the
title of this file and add markups for both tables.

Yet, the big table here with IOCTL numbers is badly formatted:
on several lines, the "Include File" column has some values that
are bigger than the reserved space there.

Also, on several places, a comment was misplaced at the "Include
File" space.

So, most of the work here is to actually ensure that each field
will be properly fixed.

Also worth to mention that some URLs have the asterisk character
on it. Well, Sphinx has an issue with asterisks in the middle
of an string. As this is URL, use the alternate format: %2A.

As a side effect of this patch, it is now a lot easier to see that
some reserved ioctl numbers are missing the include files
where it is supposed to be used.

PS.: While this is part of a subdir, I opted to convert this
single file alone, as this file has a potential of conflicts,
as most subsystem maintainers touch it.

docs: kbuild: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-06-14T20:21:21+00:00

The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents
there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.

Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust 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.

block: remove CONFIG_LBDAF

2019-04-06T16:48:35+00:00

Currently support for 64-bit sector_t and blkcnt_t is optional on 32-bit
architectures.  These types are required to support block device and/or
file sizes larger than 2 TiB, and have generally defaulted to on for
a long time.  Enabling the option only increases the i386 tinyconfig
size by 145 bytes, and many data structures already always use
64-bit values for their in-core and on-disk data structures anyway,
so there should not be a large change in dynamic memory usage either.

Dropping this option removes a somewhat weird non-default config that
has cause various bugs or compiler warnings when actually used.

docs-rst: add documents to development-process

2016-10-24T10:12:35+00:00

Add several documents to the development-process ReST book.

As we don't want renames, use symlinks instead, keeping those
documents on their original place.
