Merge branch 'convert-doc-to-rst'

Jesper Dangaard Brouer says:

====================
The kernel is moving files under Documentation to use the RST
(reStructuredText) format and Sphinx [1].  This patchset converts the
files under Documentation/bpf/ into RST format.  The Sphinx
integration is left as followup work.

This patchset have been uploaded as branch bpf_doc10 on github[2], so
reviewers can see how GitHub renders this.

BPF documentation
=================
This directory contains documentation for the BPF (Berkeley Packet
Filter) facility, with a focus on the extended BPF version (eBPF).
This kernel side documentation is still work in progress. The main
textual documentation is (for historical reasons) described in
`Documentation/networking/filter.txt`_, which describe both classical
and extended BPF instruction-set.
The Cilium project also maintains a `BPF and XDP Reference Guide`_
that goes into great technical depth about the BPF Architecture.
The primary info for the bpf syscall is available in the `man-pages`_
for `bpf(2)`_.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
================================
Two sets of Questions and Answers (Q&A) are maintained.
* QA for common questions about BPF see: bpf_design_QA_
* QA for developers interacting with BPF subsystem: bpf_devel_QA_
