Merge tag 'docs-5.11' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "A much quieter cycle for documentation (happily), with, one hopes, the bulk of the churn behind us. Significant stuff in this pull includes: - A set of new Chinese translations - Italian translation updates - A mechanism from Mauro to automatically format Documentation/features for the built docs - Automatic cross references without explicit :ref: markup - A new reset-controller document - An extensive new document on reporting problems from Thorsten That last patch also adds the CC-BY-4.0 license to LICENSES/dual; there was some discussion on this, but we seem to have consensus and an ack from Greg for that addition" * tag 'docs-5.11' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (50 commits) docs: fix broken cross reference in translations/zh_CN docs: Note that sphinx 1.7 will be required soon docs: update requirements to install six module docs: reporting-issues: move 'outdated, need help' note to proper place docs: Update documentation to reflect what TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC means docs: add a reset controller chapter to the driver API docs docs: make reporting-bugs.rst obsolete docs: Add a new text describing how to report bugs LICENSES: Add the CC-BY-4.0 license Documentation: fix multiple typos found in the admin-guide subdirectory Documentation: fix typos found in admin-guide subdirectory kernel-doc: Fix example in Nested structs/unions docs: clean up sysctl/kernel: titles, version docs: trace: fix event state structure name docs: nios2: add missing ReST file scripts: get_feat.pl: reduce table width for all features output scripts: get_feat.pl: change the group by order scripts: get_feat.pl: make complete table more coincise scripts: kernel-doc: fix parsing function-like typedefs Documentation: fix typos found in process, dev-tools, and doc-guide subdirectories ...
