Luis R. Rodriguez 113ccc3837 firmware: revamp firmware documentation
Understanding this code is getting out of control without any
notes. Give the firmware_class driver a much needed documentation love,
and while at it convert it to the new sphinx documentation format.

v2: typos and small fixes

Dave Airlie 3806a271bf Merge tag 'drm-misc-next-2016-12-30' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/drm-misc into drm-next
First -misc pull for 4.11:
- drm_mm rework + lots of selftests (Chris Wilson)
- new connector_list locking+iterators
- plenty of kerneldoc updates
- format handling rework from Ville
- atomic helper changes from Maarten for better plane corner-case handling
  in drivers, plus the i915 legacy cursor patch that needs this
- bridge cleanup from Laurent
- plus plenty of small stuff all over
- also contains a merge of the 4.10 docs tree so that we could apply the
  dma-buf kerneldoc patches

It's a lot more than usual, but due to the merge window blackout it also
covers about 4 weeks, so all in line again on a per-week basis. The more
annoying part with no pull request for 4 weeks is managing cross-tree
work. The -intel pull request I'll follow up with does conflict quite a
bit with -misc here. Longer-term (if drm-misc keeps growing) a
drm-next-queued to accept pull request for the next merge window during
this time might be useful.

I'd also like to backmerge -rc2+this into drm-intel next week, we have
quite a pile of patches waiting for the stuff in here.

Jonathan Cameron 49b2fd6ea6 docs: IIO documentation sphinx conversion
This is a manual conversion of the existing DocBook documentation
for IIO.  The intent is not to substantially change any of the
content in this patch, but to give a base to build upon.

Rafael J. Wysocki 6e092c8c04 PM / docs: Drop confusing kernel-doc references from infrastructure.rst
The references to drivers/base/power/main.c and
drivers/acpi/scan.c from Documentation/driver-api/infrastructure.rst
are confusing.  They both cause descriptions of functions that are
not relevant to device drivers at all to be generated and none of
them is sufficient to cover the API in a meaningful way.

Drop them for now.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 6634fbb6b6 driver-api: create an edac.rst file with EDAC documentation
Currently, there's no device driver documentation for the EDAC
subsystem at the driver-api book. Fill in the blanks for the
structures and functions that misses documentation, uniform
the word on the existing ones, and add a new edac.rst file at
driver-api, in order to document the EDAC subsystem.

Daniel Vetter 0959a1683d dma-buf: Update cpu access documentation
- Again move the information relevant for driver writers next to the
  callbacks.
- Put the overview and userspace interface documentation into a DOC:
  section within the code.
- Remove the text that mmap needs to be coherent - since the
  DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC landed that's no longer the case. But keep the text
  that for pte zapping exporters need to adjust the address space.
- Add a FIXME that kmap and the new begin/end stuff used by the SYNC
  ioctl don't really mix correctly. That's something I just realized
  while doing this doc rework.
- Augment function and structure docs like usual.

Daniel Vetter 2904a8c131 dma-buf: Reorganize device dma access docs
- Put the initial overview for dma-buf into dma-buf.rst.
- Put all the comments about detailed semantics into the right
  kernel-doc comment for functions or ops structure member.
- To allow that detail, switch the reworked kerneldoc to inline style
  for dma_buf_ops.
- Tie everything together into a much more streamlined overview
  comment, relying on the hyperlinks for all the details.
- Also sprinkle some links into the kerneldoc for dma_buf and
  dma_buf_attachment to tie it all together.

Just prep work to polish and consolidate all the dma-buf related
documenation.

Unfortunately I didn't discover a way to both integrate this new file
into the overall toc while keeping it at the current place. Work
around that by moving it into the overall driver-api/index.rst.
