Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "It's a somewhat calmer cycle for docs this time, as the churn of the mass RST conversion is happily mostly behind us. - A new document on reproducible builds. - We finally got around to zapping the documentation for hardware support that was removed in 2004; one doesn't want to rush these things. - The usual assortment of fixes, typo corrections, etc" * tag 'docs-5.4' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (67 commits) Documentation: kbuild: Add document about reproducible builds docs: printk-formats: Stop encouraging use of unnecessary %h[xudi] and %hh[xudi] Documentation: Add "earlycon=sbi" to the admin guide doc:lock: remove reference to clever use of read-write lock devices.txt: improve entry for comedi (char major 98) docs: mtd: Update spi nor reference driver doc: arm64: fix grammar dtb placed in no attributes region Documentation: sysrq: don't recommend 'S' 'U' before 'B' mailmap: Update email address for Quentin Perret docs: ftrace: clarify when tracing is disabled by the trace file docs: process: fix broken link Documentation/arm/samsung-s3c24xx: Remove stray U+FEFF character to fix title Documentation/arm/sa1100/assabet: Fix 'make assabet_defconfig' command Documentation/arm/sa1100: Remove some obsolete documentation docs/zh_CN: update Chinese howto.rst for latexdocs making Documentation: virt: Fix broken reference to virt tree's index docs: Fix typo on pull requests guide kernel-doc: Allow anonymous enum Documentation: sphinx: Don't parse socket() as identifier reference Documentation: sphinx: Add missing comma to list of strings ...

Documentation/features/locking: update lists

2019-07-30T20:18:43Z

The locking feature lists don't match reality as of v5.3-rc1: * arm64 moved to queued spinlocks in commit: c11090474d70590170cf5fa6afe85864ab494b37 ("arm64: locking: Replace ticket lock implementation with qspinlock") * xtensa moved to queued spinlocks and rwlocks in commit: 579afe866f52adcd921272a224ab36733051059c ("xtensa: use generic spinlock/rwlock implementation") * architecture-specific rwsem support was removed in commit: 46ad0840b1584b92b5ff2cc3ed0b011dd6b8e0f1 ("locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files") So update the feature lists accordingly, and remove the now redundant rwsem-optimized list.
