Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

There are some docs that have nested tables. While this was
always part of the spec, only Sphinx version 2.4.x can
translate it to LaTeX.
In other words, if someone is using a Sphinx version < 2.4,
the LaTeX and PDF output won't work for some of the docs.
So, it seems that it is time to raise the bar again
for the recommented version.
The Sphinx check script is already smart enough to keep
working, with older versions, warning the users that
an upgrade is recommended (and explaining how):
Sphinx version 1.7.9
Warning: It is recommended at least Sphinx version 2.4.4.
Detected OS: Fedora release 31 (Thirty One).
To upgrade Sphinx, use:
/usr/bin/virtualenv sphinx_2.4.4
. sphinx_2.4.4/bin/activate
pip install -r ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt

When there was no parallelism (no top-level -j arg and a pre-1.7
sphinx-build), the argument passed would be empty ("") instead of just
being missing, which would (understandably) badly confuse sphinx-build.
Fix this by removing the quotes.

Sphinx 2.1 moved sphinx.environment.NoUri into sphinx.errors; that produced
this warning in the docs build:

Rasmus correctly observed that the existing jobserver reservation only
worked if no other build targets were specified. The correct approach
is to hold the jobserver slots until sphinx has finished. To fix this,
the following changes are made:
- refactor (and rename) scripts/jobserver-exec to set an environment
variable for the maximally reserved jobserver slots and exec a
child, to release the slots on exit.
- create Documentation/scripts/parallel-wrapper.sh which examines both
$PARALLELISM and the detected "-jauto" logic from Documentation/Makefile
to decide sphinx's final -j argument.
- chain these together in Documentation/Makefile

In order to have the MAINTAINERS file visible in the rendered ReST
output, this makes some small changes to the existing MAINTAINERS file
to allow for better machine processing, and adds a new Sphinx directive
"maintainers-include" to perform the rendering.
Features include:
- Per-subsystem reference links: subsystem maintainer entries can be
trivially linked to both internally and external. For example:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainers.html#secure-computing
- Internally referenced .rst files are linked so they can be followed
when browsing the resulting rendering. This allows, for example, the
future addition of maintainer profiles to be automatically linked.
- Field name expansion: instead of the short fields (e.g. "M", "F",
"K"), use the indicated inline "full names" for the fields (which are
marked with "*"s in MAINTAINERS) so that a rendered subsystem entry
is more human readable. Email lists are additionally comma-separated.
For example:

With the introduction of Documentation/sphinx/automarkup.py, socket() is
parsed as a reference to the in-kernel definition of socket. Sphinx then
decides that struct socket is a good match, which is usually not
intended, when the syscall is meant instead. This was observed in
Documentation/networking/af_xdp.rst.
Prevent socket() from being misinterpreted by adding it to the Skipfuncs
list in automarkup.py.

Moved the *duplicate C object description* warnings for function
declarations in the nitpicky mode. In nitpick mode, you can suppress
those warnings (e.g. ioctl) with::
nitpicky = True
nitpick_ignore = [
("c:func", "ioctl"),
]
See Sphinx documentation for the config values for ``nitpick`` and
``nitpick_ignore`` [1].
With this change all the ".. cpp:function:: int ioctl(..)" descriptions
(found in the media book) can be migrated to ".. c:function:: int
ioctl(..)", without getting any warnings. E.g.::
.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct cec_event *argp )
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request, struct cec_event *argp )
The main effect, is that we get those *CPP-types* back into Sphinx's C-
namespace and we need no longer to distinguish between c/cpp references,
when we refer a function like the ioctl.

The kernel-include directive is needed to include the auto generated rst
content from a build (pre-) process. E.g. the linux_tv Makefile
generates intermediate reST-files from header files. Since there is a O=
option:
make O=dir [targets] Locate all output files in "dir"
We need to include intermediate reST files from arbitrary (O=/tmp/foo)
locations:
The 'kernel-include' reST-directive is a replacement for the 'include'
directive. The 'kernel-include' directive expand environment variables
in the path name and allows to include files from arbitrary locations.
.. hint::
Including files from arbitrary locations (e.g. from '/etc') is a
security risk for builders. This is why the 'include' directive from
docutils *prohibit* pathnames pointing to locations *above* the
filesystem tree where the reST document with the include directive is
placed.
Substrings of the form $name or ${name} are replaced by the value of
environment variable name. Malformed variable names and references to
non-existing variables are left unchanged.
