We appear to have a gap in our process docs. We go into detail
on how to contribute code to the kernel, and how to be a subsystem
maintainer. I can't find any docs directed towards the thousands
of small scale maintainers, like folks maintaining a single driver
or a single network protocol.

Document our expectations and best practices. I'm hoping this doc
will be particularly useful to set expectations with HW vendors.

Commit 0795e7c0 ("[AFS]: Update the AFS fs documentation.") adds a new
section listing the build configuration options that need to be enabled for
the AFS file system.

The documentation refers to CONFIG_AFS, but the option is called
CONFIG_AFS_FS, since the beginning of Linux's git history.

Refer to the config option with the correct name.

The differences between kmap_local_page() and kmap_local_folio() consist
only in the first taking a pointer to a page and the second taking two
arguments, a pointer to a folio and the byte offset within the folio which
identifies the page.

The two API's can be explained at the same time in the "Temporary Virtual
Mappings" section of the Highmem's documentation.

Add information about kmap_local_folio() in the same subsection that
explains kmap_local_page().

We just sorted the entries and fields last release, so just out of a
perverse sense of curiosity, I decided to see if we can keep things
ordered for even just one release.

The answer is "No. No we cannot".

I suggest that all kernel developers will need weekly training sessions,
involving a lot of Big Bird and Sesame Street.  And at the yearly
maintainer summit, we will all sing the alphabet song together.

I doubt I will keep doing this.  At some point "perverse sense of
curiosity" turns into just a cold dark place filled with sadness and
despair.

 "A single fix for the mechanism to park CPUs with an INIT IPI.

  On shutdown or kexec, the kernel tries to park the non-boot CPUs with

  If the CPU which panics is not the boot CPU then it sends an INIT IPI
  to the boot CPU which resets the machine.

  Prevent this by validating that the CPU which runs the stop mechanism
  is the boot CPU. If not, leave the other CPUs in HLT"
