`Specific guidelines for the kernel documentation` section of `kernel-documentation.rst` suggests to use ``~`` for subsection but subsections in HOWTO is not marked in the format. This commit marks them in the format. Signed-off-by: SeongJae Park <sj38.park@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Now that oops-tracing.rst has only information about stack dumps found on OOPS, and bug-hunting.rst has only information about how to identify the source code line associated with a stack dump, let's merge them and improve the information inside it.

The creation of the admin and process guides is a great thing, but, without care, we risk replacing a messy docs directory with a few messy Sphinx books. In an attempt to head that off and show what I'm thinking, here's a set of tweaks that, I think, make the existing Sphinx-formatted docs a bit more accessible.

It does no good to mention The 2.4 kernel series and neglect USB 3.x and XHCI. Also with type C and micro/mini USB we better not talk about the shape of connectors.

The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them. One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use :numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC, but it's probably early to do that.

Merge Mauro's massive patch series creating the process and admin-guide books. I think there's a lot of stuff to clean up here, but there's no point in holding things up for that. Mauro sez: This patch series continues the efforts of converting the Linux Kernel documentation to Sphinx. It contains text to ReST conversion of several files under Documentation, and a few ones under the main dir (README, REPORTING-BUGS). All patches on this series can be found on my development tree: https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/log/?h=lkml-books-v2 The Kernel docs html output after this series can be seen at: https://mchehab.fedorapeople.org/kernel_docs/
