Will Deacon 0cde62a46e docs/memory-barriers.txt: Fix style, spacing and grammar in I/O section
Commit 4614bbdee3 ("docs/memory-barriers.txt: Rewrite "KERNEL I/O
BARRIER EFFECTS" section") rewrote the I/O ordering section of
memory-barriers.txt.

Subsequently, Ingo noticed a number of issues with the style, spacing
and grammar of the rewritten section. Fix them based on his suggestions.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
