Now that building html docs with math expressions does not need texlive
packages, remove the note on the requirement in the "Sphinx Install"
section.

Instead, add sections of "Math Expressions in HTML" and "Choice of Math
Renderer".
Describe the effect of setting SPHINX_IMGMATH in the latter section.

Bring the description on when to use the Reported-by: tag found in
Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst more in line with the description in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst: before this change the two
were contradicting each other, as the latter is way more permissive and
only states '[...] if the bug was reported in private, then ask for
permission first before using the Reported-by tag.'

The top-level index.rst file is the entry point for the kernel's
documentation, especially for readers of the HTML output.  It is currently
a mess containing everything we thought to throw in there.  Firefox says it
would require 26 pages of paper to print it.  That is not a user-friendly
introduction.

This series aims to improve our documentation entry point with a focus on
rewriting index.rst.  The result is, IMO, simpler and more approachable.
For anybody who wants to see the rendered results without building the
docs, have a look at:

  https://static.lwn.net/kerneldoc/

This time around I've rendered the pages using the "Read The Docs" theme,
since that's what everybody will get by default.  That theme ignores the
directives regarding the left column, so the results are not as good there.
I have a series proposing a default-theme change in the works, but that's a
separate topic.

This is only a beginning; I think this kind of organizational effort has to
be pushed down into the lower layers of the docs tree itself.  But one has
to start somewhere.

Readers looking for user-oriented information may benefit from it.

The current section 'If something goes wrong' makes a number of suggestions
for debugging, bug hunting and reporting issues, which are quite briefly
described in that section.

However, the suggestions are also well covered in other kernel
documentation or sometimes simply outdated. Here, each suggestion in that
section is summarized, and then followed with its assessment, and the
derived action for each suggestion:

  - use MAINTAINERS and mailing list: covered in 'Reporting issues',
    summarized in the short guide, detailed in its further section.
    Reporting issues even provides some specific examples that guides
    readers well through the needed steps. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - contact Linus Torvalds: probably outdated as currently described.
    nevertheless covered in 'Reporting issues'. Reporting issues points out
    to contact the relevant kernel maintainers first, and after some
    patience and failed attempts with those maintainers, contacting Linus
    Torvalds might be okay. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - tell what kernel, how to duplicate, the setup, if the problem is new
    or old and when did you notice: covered in 'Reporting issues',
    especially in Step-by-step guide how to report issues to the kernel
    maintainers. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - duplicate kernel bug reports exactly: covered in 'Reporting issues',
    especially in Write and send the report. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - read 'Bug hunting': keep this reference. Refer to 'Bug hunting'.

  - compile the kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS: covered in 'Reporting issues',
    especially in Decode failure messages. Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - alternatively, use ksymoops: ksymoops at the mentioned URL seems not to
    be maintained anymore. It was released roughly once a year until
    version 2.4.11 in 2005, but has not seen a new release since then. The
    information in ./scripts/ksymoops/README is from 1999, and does not
    give more insight on its actual maintenance state either. Ksymoops is
    mentioned as system utility in changes.rst, but also not recommended
    there. Drop the explanation on using ksymoops.

  - alternatively, lookup dump manually with the EIP and nm to determine
    the function in which the kernel crashes: this method seems already a
    quite advanced and low-level debugging method. Even all the further
    references on bug hunting and debugging do not mention it. Drop this
    alternative method and limit mentioning methods explained in the other
    existing kernel documentation.

  - read 'Reporting issues': keep this reference.
    Refer to 'Reporting issues'.

  - use gdb for debugging: some specific details, e.g., edit
    arch/x86/Makefile, are probably outdated or limited to one (historic
    important) setup. Using gdb is covered in 'Bug hunting', 'Debugging
    kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel
    debugger internals'. Refer to those three documents.

Overall, it is sufficient to refer to reporting-issues.rst,
bug-hunting.rst, gdb-kernel-debugging.rst and kgdb.rst and this way cover
the existing suggestions.

'Reporting issues' is quite new and probably up to date. 'Bug hunting',
'Debugging kernel and modules via gdb' and 'Using kgdb, kdb and the kernel
debugger internals' might need some revisit and update, but they are
generally in an acceptable state for referring to them.

Replace the existing suggestions by reference to other existing kernel
documentation covering those suggestions---partly even nicely summarized
and then explained in greater detail.

Running a.out user programs with the latest kernel release is a very rare
and uncommon use case nowadays. The support of a.out user programs is only
remaining for the alpha architecture and is not defined and activated in
the architecture's Kconfig (so even the activation of this support requires
to modify the Kconfig file and not just kernel build configuration).

The discussion on a.out support in 2019 (see Link) shows that the support
of a.out user programs is just remaining for a special corner case from
some (alpha architecture) users.

There is no need to point out and mention this special feature to the
general audience of kernel users. Delete the reference to this historic and
special feature.
