Pull documentation format standardization from Jonathan Corbet:
 "This series converts a number of top-level documents to the RST format
  without incorporating them into the Sphinx tree. The hope is to bring
  some uniformity to kernel documentation and, perhaps more importantly,
  have our existing docs serve as an example of the desired formatting
  for those that will be added later.

  Mauro has gone through and fixed up a lot of top-level documentation
  files to make them conform to the RST format, but without moving or
  renaming them in any way. This will help when we incorporate the ones
  we want to keep into the Sphinx doctree, but the real purpose is to
  bring a bit of uniformity to our documentation and let the top-level
  docs serve as examples for those writing new ones"

 spinning on a lock, and can be used by the underlying implementation to force
