Merge tag 'docs-6.6' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "Documentation work keeps chugging along; this includes:

   - Work from Carlos Bilbao to integrate rustdoc output into the
     generated HTML documentation. This took some work to figure out how
     to do it without slowing the docs build and without creating people
     who don't have Rust installed, but Carlos got there

   - Move the loongarch and mips architecture documentation under
     Documentation/arch/

   - Some more maintainer documentation from Jakub

  ... plus the usual assortment of updates, translations, and fixes"

+BMIPS DeviceTree Booting
+------------------------
+
+  Some bootloaders only support a single entry point, at the start of the
+  kernel image.  Other bootloaders will jump to the ELF start address.
+  Both schemes are supported; CONFIG_BOOT_RAW=y and CONFIG_NO_EXCEPT_FILL=y,
+  so the first instruction immediately jumps to kernel_entry().
+
+  Similar to the arch/arm case (b), a DT-aware bootloader is expected to
+  set up the following registers:
+
+         a0 : 0
+
+         a1 : 0xffffffff
+
+         a2 : Physical pointer to the device tree block (defined in chapter
+         II) in RAM.  The device tree can be located anywhere in the first
+         512MB of the physical address space (0x00000000 - 0x1fffffff),
+         aligned on a 64 bit boundary.
+
+  Legacy bootloaders do not use this convention, and they do not pass in a
+  DT block.  In this case, Linux will look for a builtin DTB, selected via
+  CONFIG_DT_*.
+
+  This convention is defined for 32-bit systems only, as there are not
+  currently any 64-bit BMIPS implementations.
