Merge tag 'docs-5.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet: "A fairly normal cycle for documentation stuff. We have a new document on perf security, more Italian translations, more improvements to the memory-management docs, improvements to the pathname lookup documentation, and the usual array of smaller fixes. As is often the case, there are a few reaches outside of Documentation/ to adjust kerneldoc comments" * tag 'docs-5.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (38 commits) docs: improve pathname-lookup document structure configfs: fix wrong name of struct in documentation docs/mm-api: link slab_common.c to "The Slab Cache" section slab: make kmem_cache_create{_usercopy} description proper kernel-doc doc:process: add links where missing docs/core-api: make mm-api.rst more structured x86, boot: documentation whitespace fixup Documentation: devres: note checking needs when converting doc:it: add some process/* translations doc:it: fixes in process/1.Intro Documentation: convert path-lookup from markdown to resturctured text Documentation/admin-guide: update admin-guide index.rst Documentation/admin-guide: introduce perf-security.rst file scripts/kernel-doc: Fix struct and struct field attribute processing Documentation: dev-tools: Fix typos in index.rst Correct gen_init_cpio tool's documentation Document /proc/pid PID reuse behavior Documentation: update path-lookup.md for parallel lookups Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst" dmaengine: Add mailing list address to the documentation ...
