There are two docs describing memory device drivers.
Add both to this new chapter of the driver-api.

There are a number of driver-specific descriptions that contain a
mix of userspace and kernelspace documentation. Just like we did
with other similar subsystems, add them at the driver-api
groupset, but don't move the directories.
Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
There are lots of documents under Documentation/*.txt and a few other
orphan documents elsehwere that belong to the driver-API book.
Move them to their right place.

While I was tempted to move it to admin-guide, as some docs
there are more userspace-faced, there are some very technical
discussions about memory error correction code from the Kernel
implementer's PoV. So, let's place it inside the driver-api
book.

This is actually a subsystem description, with contains both

While it should ideally be slplit, let's place it at driver-api,
as most things are related to kAPI and driver-specific info.

Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs changes for 5.3-rc1
It's a lot of different patches, all across the tree due to some api
changes and lots of debugfs cleanups. Because of this, there is going
to be some merge issues with your tree at the moment, I'll follow up
with the expected resolutions to make it easier for you.
Other than the debugfs cleanups, in this set of changes we have:
- bus iteration function cleanups (will cause build warnings
with s390 and coresight drivers in your tree)
- scripts/get_abi.pl tool to display and parse Documentation/ABI
entries in a simple way
- cleanups to Documenatation/ABI/ entries to make them parse
easier due to typos and other minor things
- default_attrs use for some ktype users
- driver model documentation file conversions to .rst
- compressed firmware file loading
- deferred probe fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with a bunch of merge
issues that Stephen has been patient with me for. Other than the merge
issues, functionality is working properly in linux-next :)

Merge tag 'gpio-v5.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the big slew of GPIO changes for the v5.3 kernel cycle. This
is mostly incremental work this time.
Three important things:
- The FMC subsystem is deleted through my tree. This happens through
GPIO as its demise was discussed in relation to a patch decoupling
its GPIO implementation from the standard way of handling GPIO. As
it turns out, that is not the only subsystem it reimplements and
the authors think it is better do scratch it and start over using
the proper kernel subsystems than try to polish the rust shiny. See
the commit (ACKed by the maintainers) for details.
- Arnd made a small devres patch that was ACKed by Greg and goes into
the device core.
- SPDX header change colissions may happen, because at times I've
seen that quite a lot changed during the -rc:s in regards to SPDX.
(It is good stuff, tglx has me convinced, and it is worth the
occasional pain.)
Apart from this is is nothing controversial or problematic.
Summary:
Core:
- When a gpio_chip request GPIOs from itself, it can now fully
control the line characteristics, both machine and consumer flags.
This makes a lot of sense, but took some time before I figured out
that this is how it has to work.

- Improve stop_machine wait logic: replace cpu_relax_yield call in generic
stop_machine function with a weak stop_machine_yield function. This is
overridden on s390, which yields the current cpu to the neighbouring cpu
after a couple of retries, instead of blindly giving up the cpu to the
hipervisor. This significantly improves stop_machine performance on s390 in
overcommitted scenarios.
This includes common code changes which have been Acked by Peter Zijlstra
and Thomas Gleixner.
- Improve jump label transformation speed: transform jump labels without
using stop_machine.
- Refactoring of the vfio-ccw cp handling, simplifying the code and
avoiding unneeded allocating/copying.
- Various vfio-ccw fixes (ccw translation, state machine).
- Add support for vfio-ap queue interrupt control in the guest.
This includes s390 kvm changes which have been Acked by Christian
Borntraeger.
- Add protected virtualization support for virtio-ccw.
- Enforce both CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, which allows to remove some
code which most likely isn't working at all, besides that s390 didn't even
compile for !CONFIG_SMP.
- Support for special flagged EP11 CPRBs for zcrypt.
- Handle PCI devices with no support for new MIO instructions.
- Avoid KASAN false positives in reworked stack unwinder.
- Couple of fixes for the QDIO layer.
- Convert s390 specific documentation to ReST format.
- Let s390 crypto modules return -ENODEV instead of -EOPNOTSUPP if hardware is
missing. This way our modules behave like most other modules and which is
also what systemd's systemd-modules-load.service expects.
- Replace defconfig with performance_defconfig, so there is one config file
less to maintain.
- Remove the SCLP call home device driver, which was never useful.
- Cleanups all over the place.

Merge tag 's390-5.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Improve stop_machine wait logic: replace cpu_relax_yield call in
generic stop_machine function with a weak stop_machine_yield
function. This is overridden on s390, which yields the current cpu to
the neighbouring cpu after a couple of retries, instead of blindly
giving up the cpu to the hipervisor. This significantly improves
stop_machine performance on s390 in overcommitted scenarios.
This includes common code changes which have been Acked by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner.
- Improve jump label transformation speed: transform jump labels
without using stop_machine.
- Refactoring of the vfio-ccw cp handling, simplifying the code and
avoiding unneeded allocating/copying.
- Various vfio-ccw fixes (ccw translation, state machine).
- Add support for vfio-ap queue interrupt control in the guest. This
includes s390 kvm changes which have been Acked by Christian
Borntraeger.
- Add protected virtualization support for virtio-ccw.
- Enforce both CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, which allows to
remove some code which most likely isn't working at all, besides that
s390 didn't even compile for !CONFIG_SMP.
- Support for special flagged EP11 CPRBs for zcrypt.
- Handle PCI devices with no support for new MIO instructions.
- Avoid KASAN false positives in reworked stack unwinder.
- Couple of fixes for the QDIO layer.
- Convert s390 specific documentation to ReST format.
- Let s390 crypto modules return -ENODEV instead of -EOPNOTSUPP if
hardware is missing. This way our modules behave like most other
modules and which is also what systemd's systemd-modules-load.service
expects.
- Replace defconfig with performance_defconfig, so there is one config
file less to maintain.
- Remove the SCLP call home device driver, which was never useful.
- Cleanups all over the place.

Convert the various documents at the driver-model, preparing
them to be part of the driver-api book.
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.

This file is already in a good shape: just its title and
adding some literal block markups is needed for it to be
part of the document.
While it has a small chapter with sysfs stuff, most of
the document is focused on driver development.
As it describes a kernel API, move it to the driver-api
directory.
In order to avoid conflicts, let's add an :orphan: tag
to it, to be removed when added to the driver-api book.

Convert all text files with s390 documentation to ReST format.
Tried to preserve as much as possible the original document
format. Still, some of the files required some work in order
for it to be visible on both plain text and after converted
to html.

- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
