2019-07-15docs: ioctl-number.txt: convert it to ReST formatMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
The conversion itself is simple: add a markup for the title of this file and add markups for both tables. Yet, the big table here with IOCTL numbers is badly formatted: on several lines, the "Include File" column has some values that are bigger than the reserved space there. Also, on several places, a comment was misplaced at the "Include File" space. So, most of the work here is to actually ensure that each field will be properly fixed. Also worth to mention that some URLs have the asterisk character on it. Well, Sphinx has an issue with asterisks in the middle of an string. As this is URL, use the alternate format: %2A. As a side effect of this patch, it is now a lot easier to see that some reserved ioctl numbers are missing the include files where it is supposed to be used. PS.: While this is part of a subdir, I opted to convert this single file alone, as this file has a potential of conflicts, as most subsystem maintainers touch it.

2019-06-14docs: kbuild: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents there are written at different times: some use markdown, some use their own peculiar logic to split sections. Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2019-04-06block: remove CONFIG_LBDAFChristoph Hellwig1-15/+12
Currently support for 64-bit sector_t and blkcnt_t is optional on 32-bit architectures. These types are required to support block device and/or file sizes larger than 2 TiB, and have generally defaulted to on for a long time. Enabling the option only increases the i386 tinyconfig size by 145 bytes, and many data structures already always use 64-bit values for their in-core and on-disk data structures anyway, so there should not be a large change in dynamic memory usage either. Dropping this option removes a somewhat weird non-default config that has cause various bugs or compiler warnings when actually used.
