The stuff under sysctl describes /sys interface from userspace
point of view. So, add it to the admin-guide and remove the
:orphan: from its index file.

The two files there describes a Kernel API feature, used to
support early userspace stuff. Prepare for moving them to
the kernel API book by converting to ReST format.
The conversion itself was quite trivial: just add/mark a few
titles as such, add a literal block markup, add a table markup
and a few blank lines, in order to make Sphinx to properly parse it.
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.

In this round, we've introduced native swap file support which can exploit DIO,
enhanced existing checkpoint=disable feature with additional mount option to
tune the triggering condition, and allowed user to preallocate physical blocks
in a pinned file which will be useful to avoid f2fs fragmentation in append-only
workloads. In addition, we've fixed subtle quota corruption issue.
Enhancement:
- add swap file support which uses DIO
- allocate blocks for pinned file
- allow SSR and mount option to enhance checkpoint=disable
- enhance IPU IOs
- add more sanity checks such as memory boundary access
Bug fix:
- quota corruption in very corner case of error-injected SPO case
- fix root_reserved on remount and some wrong counts
- add missing fsck flag
Some patches were also introduced to clean up ambiguous i_flags and debugging
messages codes.

Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs changes for 5.3-rc1
It's a lot of different patches, all across the tree due to some api
changes and lots of debugfs cleanups. Because of this, there is going
to be some merge issues with your tree at the moment, I'll follow up
with the expected resolutions to make it easier for you.
Other than the debugfs cleanups, in this set of changes we have:
- bus iteration function cleanups (will cause build warnings
with s390 and coresight drivers in your tree)
- scripts/get_abi.pl tool to display and parse Documentation/ABI
entries in a simple way
- cleanups to Documenatation/ABI/ entries to make them parse
easier due to typos and other minor things
- default_attrs use for some ktype users
- driver model documentation file conversions to .rst
- compressed firmware file loading
- deferred probe fixes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with a bunch of merge
issues that Stephen has been patient with me for. Other than the merge
issues, functionality is working properly in linux-next :)

Report separate components (anon, file, and shmem) for PSS in
smaps_rollup.
This helps understand and tune the memory manager behavior in consumer
devices, particularly mobile devices. Many of them (e.g. chromebooks and
Android-based devices) use zram for anon memory, and perform disk reads
for discarded file pages. The difference in latency is large (e.g.
reading a single page from SSD is 30 times slower than decompressing a
zram page on one popular device), thus it is useful to know how much of
the PSS is anon vs. file.
All the information is already present in /proc/pid/smaps, but much more
expensive to obtain because of the large size of that procfs entry.
This patch also removes a small code duplication in smaps_account, which
would have gotten worse otherwise.
Also updated Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt (the smaps section was a
bit stale, and I added a smaps_rollup section) and
Documentation/ABI/testing/procfs-smaps_rollup.

- Add a new /proc/fs/nfsd/clients/ directory which exposes some
long-requested information about NFSv4 clients (like open files) and
allows forced revocation of client state.
- Replace the global duplicate reply cache by a cache per network
namespace; previously, a request in one network namespace could
incorrectly match an entry from another, though we haven't seen this
in production. This is the last remaining container bug that I'm
aware of; at this point you should be able to run separate nfsd's in
each network namespace, each with their own set of exports, and
everything should work.
- Cleanup and modify lock code to show the pid of lockd as the owner of
NLM locks. This is the correct version of the bugfix originally

understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
unattractive and not fun to type.

Merge tag 'docs-5.3' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:
- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with
other trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on
the wings that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos,
and one on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic
markup of function() references because some people, for reasons I
will never understand, were of the opinion that
:c:func:``function()`` is unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc"

fscrypt only uses SHA-256 for AES-128-CBC-ESSIV, which isn't the default
and is only recommended on platforms that have hardware accelerated
AES-CBC but not AES-XTS. There's no link-time dependency, since SHA-256
is requested via the crypto API on first use.
To reduce bloat, we should limit FS_ENCRYPTION to selecting the default
algorithms only. SHA-256 by itself isn't that much bloat, but it's
being discussed to move ESSIV into a crypto API template, which would
incidentally bring in other things like "authenc" support, which would
all end up being built-in since FS_ENCRYPTION is now a bool.
For Adiantum encryption we already just document that users who want to
use it have to enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM themselves. So, let's do
the same for AES-128-CBC-ESSIV and CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256.

This extends the checkpoint option to allow checkpoint=disable:%u[%]
This allows you to specify what how much of the disk you are willing
to lose access to while mounting with checkpoint=disable. If the amount
lost would be higher, the mount will return -EAGAIN. This can be given
as a percent of total space, or in blocks.
Currently, we need to run garbage collection until the amount of holes
is smaller than the OVP space. With the new option, f2fs can mark
space as unusable up front instead of requiring garbage collection until
the number of holes is small enough.

vfs.txt is currently stale. If we convert it to RST this is a good
first step in the process of getting the VFS documentation up to date.
This patch does the following (all as a single patch so as not to
introduce any new SPHINX build warnings)
- Use '.. code-block:: c' for C code blocks and indent the code blocks.
- Use double backticks for struct member descriptions.
- Fix a couple of build warnings by guarding pointers (*) with double
backticks .e.g ``*ptr``.
- Add vfs to Documentation/filesystems/index.rst
The member descriptions paragraph indentation was not touched. It is
not pretty but these do not cause build warnings. These descriptions
all need updating anyways so leave it as it is for now.
