doc: fix broken references

2011-09-27T16:08:04+00:00

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

Documentation: Add timers/timers-howto.txt

2010-08-04T09:00:45+00:00

This file seeks to explain the nuances in various delays;
many driver writers are not necessarily familiar with the
various kernel timers, their shortfalls, and quirks. When
faced with

ndelay, udelay, mdelay, usleep_range, msleep, and msleep_interrubtible

the question "How do I just wait 1 ms for my hardware to
latch?" has the non-intuitive "best" answer:
	usleep_range(1000,1500)

This patch is followed by a series of checkpatch additions
that seek to help kernel hackers pick the best delay.

Documentation/timers/hpet_example.c: only build on X86

2010-06-01T17:05:19+00:00

We should only build hpet_example on x86[-64], where it is implemented.
It can cause build errors on other architectures.

Documentation/timers/: split txt and source files

2010-03-12T23:52:35+00:00

Documentation/timers/hpet.txt:
Expose example and tool source files in the Documentation/timers/ directory in
their own files instead of being buried (almost hidden) in readme/txt files.
This should help to prevent bitrot.

This will make them more visible/usable to users who may need
to use them, to developers who may need to test with them, and
to anyone who would fix/update them if they were more visible.

Also, if any of these possibly should not be in the kernel tree at
all, it will be clearer that they are here and we can discuss if
they should be removed.
