Linus Torvalds 255442c938 Documentation updates for 4.16. New stuff includes refcount_t ... documentation, errseq documentation, kernel-doc support for nested structure definitions, the removal of lots of crufty kernel-doc support for unused formats, SPDX tag documentation, the beginnings of a manual for subsystem maintainers, and lots of fixes and updates. As usual, some of the changesets reach outside of Documentation/ to effect kerneldoc comment fixes. It also adds the new LICENSES directory, of which Thomas promises I do not need to be the maintainer. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAABAgAGBQJab11TAAoJEI3ONVYwIuV6i1UP/1LgGPHW9Ygq5qaLFbReZd/u Mx/orrhHX0PdkbCCE+CbL8Vm1m4UKFDTBdlpk3s542zxeeG0ZBXuTnvq4Kyk+cTN p4/vsIEzk/Ih13/glGE5MlV+EjiEK+8hK69TIUj7bAyuHmpzofjRz9/1M6RLDGDC HY6UI58AXG0yOQWMWCGRMYpQAFUGij2equ7Doe1ugXRq14dx7V4RsOhI140iRk7t bquAq1rS2fXniiuPFmLBUe4dWW28isVa/Vl/aXcaWQDKMyT0OLhjOMW36wWKqtPi WdVCpHv1NLZNyZZr9S3kvfOwW+BUqpEzfVwssyBLW4h0tsnIx0U0HVhSTY8/TvFZ QD9yCSana4LB/e5CHXIX5lBHbjHxf+rETXqVV4MgwDaMvM3mCo4X6WUTJDmZADo6 vQISEKeb4su5uWAbc9T9xwRSLhZnFVdJ/QuYdNQ5+EpFJYLhzQ9eBvEz6JstSIXL p9ASBiPNY3ulpVZ8q0JOHJRBhq5mHJH6Dy8achzbILy2l/ZI4b8lJ53mw9II04cp puF96E6HpvuZ8Tgjjrg9U3ZdxXNrUgc/tjk2ZDkyTglk1XF2jKSq2tiNSZ3oLrJm XqJPnpCeyJM5UDvwkIBzgC41WEHwe8uvoNbUnc4X7UJSZegFzcSLQXf5qaprHS5k XeQ7sbd+S+jzVVjFi0W5 =Z15Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-4.16' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "Documentation updates for 4.16.
