1289c43164 Documentation: RAS: Add index and address translation section
There are a lot of RAS topic to document, and there are a lot of details
for each topic.

Prep for this by adding an index for the RAS directory. This will
provide a top-level document and table of contents. It also provides the
option to build the RAS directory individually using "make SPHINXDIRS=".

Start a section on address translation. This will be expanded with
details for future translation methods and how they're used in the
kernel.

Move the error decoding topic to its own section. Links to other error
decoding kernel docs will be added.

b8885e2615 Documentation: front page: use recommended heading adornments
Convert the Documentation front page to use the heading adornments
that are documented in doc-guide/sphinx.rst for document title and
chapters. I.e., convert most section headings to chapters.

This leaves "Indices and tables" as a chapter entry at the same level
as the other chapters.

The only visual difference from before to after is that the "Indices
and tables" heading is smaller and has more vertical whitespace
preceding it (although that may depend on the web browser being used).

8aebac8293 Rust introduction for v6.1-rc1
The initial support of Rust-for-Linux comes in roughly 4 areas:
 
 - Kernel internals (kallsyms expansion for Rust symbols, %pA format)
 
 - Kbuild infrastructure (Rust build rules and support scripts)
 
 - Rust crates and bindings for initial minimum viable build
 
 - Rust kernel documentation and samples
 
 Rust support has been in linux-next for a year and a half now, and the
 short log doesn't do justice to the number of people who have contributed
 both to the Linux kernel side but also to the upstream Rust side to
 support the kernel's needs. Thanks to these 173 people, and many more,
 who have been involved in all kinds of ways:

d07479b211 docs: add Rust documentation
Most of the documentation for Rust is written within the source code
itself, as it is idiomatic for Rust projects. This applies to both
the shared infrastructure at `rust/` as well as any other Rust module
(e.g. drivers) written across the kernel.

However, these documents contain general information that does not
fit particularly well in the source code, like the Quick Start guide.

It also contains a few other small changes elsewhere in the
documentation folder.

This contains the new HTE subsystem that has been in the works for a
 couple of months now. The infrastructure provided allows for drivers to
 register as hardware timestamp providers, while consumers will be able
 to request events that they are interested in (such as GPIOs and IRQs)
 to be timestamped by the hardware providers.
 
 Note that this currently supports only one provider, but there seems to
 be enough interest in this functionality and we expect to see more
 drivers added once this is merged.

Merge tag 'hte/for-5.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tegra/linux

Pull hardware timestamping subsystem from Thierry Reding:
 "This contains the new HTE (hardware timestamping engine) subsystem
  that has been in the works for a couple of months now.

  The infrastructure provided allows for drivers to register as hardware
  timestamp providers, while consumers will be able to request events
  that they are interested in (such as GPIOs and IRQs) to be timestamped
  by the hardware providers.

  Note that this currently supports only one provider, but there seems
  to be enough interest in this functionality and we expect to see more
  drivers added once this is merged"

[ Linus Walleij mentions the Intel PMC in the Elkhart and Tiger Lake
  platforms as another future timestamp provider ]

932c2989b5 TTY / Serial driver changes for 5.19-rc1
Here is the big set of tty and serial driver updates for 5.19-rc1.
 
 Lots of tiny cleanups in here, the major stuff is:
 	- termbit cleanups and unification by Ilpo.  A much needed
 	  change that goes a long way to making things simpler for all
 	  of the different arches
 	- tty documentation cleanups and movements to their own place in
 	  the documentation tree
 	- old tty driver cleanups and fixes from Jiri to bring some
 	  existing drivers into the modern world
 	- RS485 cleanups and unifications to make it easier for
 	  individual drivers to support this mode instead of having to
 	  duplicate logic in each driver
 	- Lots of 8250 driver updates and additions
 	- new device id additions
 	- n_gsm continued fixes and cleanups
 	- other minor serial driver updates and cleanups
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for weeks with no reported issues.

09574cca6a hte: Add Tegra194 HTE kernel provider
Tegra194 device has multiple HTE instances also known as GTE (Generic
Hardware Timestamping Engine) which can timestamp subset of SoC lines
and signals. This provider driver focuses on IRQ and GPIO lines and
exposes timestamping ability on those lines to the consumers through
HTE subsystem.

Also, with this patch, added:
- documentation about this provider and its capabilities at
Documentation/hte.
- Compilation support in Makefile and Kconfig

9435dc3b5e docs: Add documentation for MHI bus
MHI (Modem Host Interface) is a communication protocol used by the
host processors to control and communicate with modems over a high
speed peripheral bus or shared memory. The MHI protocol has been
designed and developed by Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc., for use
in their modems. This commit adds the documentation for the bus and
the implementation in Linux kernel.

  - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to

  - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last.  Now we just need
    to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
 
  - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of

  - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
    Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to

ffedeeb780 linkage: Introduce new macros for assembler symbols
Introduce new C macros for annotations of functions and data in
assembly. There is a long-standing mess in macros like ENTRY, END,
ENDPROC and similar. They are used in different manners and sometimes
incorrectly.

So introduce macros with clear use to annotate assembly as follows:

a) Support macros for the ones below
   SYM_T_FUNC -- type used by assembler to mark functions
   SYM_T_OBJECT -- type used by assembler to mark data
   SYM_T_NONE -- type used by assembler to mark entries of unknown type

   They are defined as STT_FUNC, STT_OBJECT, and STT_NOTYPE
   respectively. According to the gas manual, this is the most portable
   way. I am not sure about other assemblers, so this can be switched
   back to %function and %object if this turns into a problem.
   Architectures can also override them by something like ", @function"
   if they need.

   SYM_A_ALIGN, SYM_A_NONE -- align the symbol?
   SYM_L_GLOBAL, SYM_L_WEAK, SYM_L_LOCAL -- linkage of symbols

b) Mostly internal annotations, used by the ones below
   SYM_ENTRY -- use only if you have to (for non-paired symbols)
   SYM_START -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)
   SYM_END -- use only if you have to (for paired symbols)

c) Annotations for code
   SYM_INNER_LABEL_ALIGN -- only for labels in the middle of code
   SYM_INNER_LABEL -- only for labels in the middle of code

   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_ALIAS -- use where there are two local names for
	one function
   SYM_FUNC_START_ALIAS -- use where there are two global names for one
	function
   SYM_FUNC_END_ALIAS -- the end of LOCAL_ALIASed or ALIASed function

   SYM_FUNC_START -- use for global functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_NOALIGN -- use for global functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL -- use for local functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local functions, w/o
	alignment
   SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK -- use for weak functions
   SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK_NOALIGN -- use for weak functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_FUNC_END -- the end of SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL, SYM_FUNC_START,
	SYM_FUNC_START_WEAK, ...

   For functions with special (non-C) calling conventions:
   SYM_CODE_START -- use for non-C (special) functions
   SYM_CODE_START_NOALIGN -- use for non-C (special) functions, w/o
	alignment
   SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL -- use for local non-C (special) functions
   SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL_NOALIGN -- use for local non-C (special)
	functions, w/o alignment
   SYM_CODE_END -- the end of SYM_CODE_START_LOCAL or SYM_CODE_START

d) For data
   SYM_DATA_START -- global data symbol
   SYM_DATA_START_LOCAL -- local data symbol
   SYM_DATA_END -- the end of the SYM_DATA_START symbol
   SYM_DATA_END_LABEL -- the labeled end of SYM_DATA_START symbol
   SYM_DATA -- start+end wrapper around simple global data
   SYM_DATA_LOCAL -- start+end wrapper around simple local data

==========

The macros allow to pair starts and ends of functions and mark functions
correctly in the output ELF objects.

All users of the old macros in x86 are converted to use these in further
patches.

 - Some fixes to atomics, in general providing compiler barriers for

   behavior of some MIPS kernel configurations when built with recent
   clang versions.
 
 - Initial MIPS32 huge page support, functional on at least Ingenic SoCs.
 
 - pte_special() is now supported for some configurations, allowing among
   other things generic fast GUP to be used.
 
 - Miscellaneous fixes & cleanups.
 
 And platform specific changes:
 
 - Major improvements to Ingenic SoC support from Paul Cercueil, mostly
   enabled by the inclusion of the new TCU (timer-counter unit) drivers
   he's spent a very patient year or so working on. Plus some fixes for
   X1000 SoCs from Zhou Yanjie.
 
 - Netgear R6200 v1 systems are now supported by the bcm47xx platform.
 
 - DT updates for BMIPS, Lantiq & Microsemi Ocelot systems.

doc: Add doc for the Ingenic TCU hardware
Add documentation about the Timer/Counter Unit (TCU) present in the
Ingenic JZ47xx SoCs.

The Timer/Counter Unit (TCU) in Ingenic JZ47xx SoCs is a multi-function
hardware block. It features up to to eight channels, that can be used as
counters, timers, or PWM.

- JZ4725B, JZ4750, JZ4755 only have six TCU channels. The other SoCs all
  have eight channels.

- JZ4725B introduced a separate channel, called Operating System Timer
  (OST). It is a 32-bit programmable timer. On JZ4770 and above, it is
  64-bit.

- Each one of the TCU channels has its own clock, which can be reparented
  to three different clocks (pclk, ext, rtc), gated, and reclocked, through
  their TCSR register.
  * The watchdog and OST hardware blocks also feature a TCSR register with
    the same format in their register space.
  * The TCU registers used to gate/ungate can also gate/ungate the watchdog
    and OST clocks.

- Each TCU channel works in one of two modes:
  * mode TCU1: channels cannot work in sleep mode, but are easier to
    operate.
  * mode TCU2: channels can work in sleep mode, but the operation is a bit
    more complicated than with TCU1 channels.

- The mode of each TCU channel depends on the SoC used:
  * On the oldest SoCs (up to JZ4740), all of the eight channels operate in
    TCU1 mode.
  * On JZ4725B, channel 5 operates as TCU2, the others operate as TCU1.
  * On newest SoCs (JZ4750 and above), channels 1-2 operate as TCU2, the
    others operate as TCU1.

- Each channel can generate an interrupt. Some channels share an interrupt
  line, some don't, and this changes between SoC versions:
  * on older SoCs (JZ4740 and below), channel 0 and channel 1 have their
    own interrupt line; channels 2-7 share the last interrupt line.
  * On JZ4725B, channel 0 has its own interrupt; channels 1-5 share one
    interrupt line; the OST uses the last interrupt line.
  * on newer SoCs (JZ4750 and above), channel 5 has its own interrupt;
    channels 0-4 and (if eight channels) 6-7 all share one interrupt line;
    the OST uses the last interrupt line.

e9bb627561 docs: w1: convert to ReST and add to the kAPI group of docs
The 1wire documentation was written with w1 developers in
mind, so, it makes sense to add it together with the driver-api
set.

9cdd273e29 spi: docs: convert to ReST and add it to the kABI bookset
While there's one file there with briefily describes the uAPI,
the documentation was written just like most subsystems: focused
on kernel developers. So, add it together with driver-api books.

Rename and add the nios2 documentation to the documentation
body.

The nios2 document is already on an ReST compatible format.
All it needs is that the title of the document to be promoted
one level.
