1630146db2 scripts/find-unused-docs: Fix massive false positives
scripts/find-unused-docs.sh invokes scripts/kernel-doc to find out if a
source file contains kerneldoc or not.

However, as it passes the no longer supported "-text" option to
scripts/kernel-doc, the latter prints out its help text, causing all
files to be considered containing kerneldoc.

Get rid of these false positives by removing the no longer supported
"-text" option from the scripts/kernel-doc invocation.

The ACPI Device Specific Methods (_DSM) paragraph is intended to be a

used Markdown notation for this subsection, which does not parse as
intended in a ReST documentation.

Change the markup to ReST notation, as described in the Specific

bcac386f3d docs: Keep up with the location of NoUri
Sphinx 2.1 moved sphinx.environment.NoUri into sphinx.errors; that produced
this warning in the docs build:

  /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sphinx/registry.py:473:
    RemovedInSphinx30Warning: sphinx.environment.NoUri is deprecated.

Grab NoUri from the right place and make the warning go away.  That symbol
was only added to sphinx.errors in 2.1, so we must still import it from the
old location when running in older versions.

Daniel W. S. Almeida writes:

  This series converts a few docs in Documentation/filesystems/nfs to RST.
  The docs were also moved into admin-guide because they contain

  Most changes are related to aesthetics and presentation, i.e. the content
  itself remains mostly untouched. The use of markup was limited in order
  not to negatively impact the plain-text reading experience.

c1ccff45e5 docs/memory-barriers.txt.kokr: Minor wordsmith
As suggested by Paul, I got a review from another Korean hacker Yunjae.
 From the review, I got not only 'Reviewed-by:' tags, but also found a
few minor nits.  So I made a second version of the patchset but just
realized that the first version has already sent to Linus.  I therefore
send only the nit fixes as another patch.

docs/memory-barriers.txt.kokr: Minor wordsmith

This commit fixes a couple of minor nits in the Korean translation of
'memory-barriers.txt'.

This patch fixes the following documentation build warning:
Warning: Documentation/kernel-hacking/hacking.rst references
a file that doesn't exist: Documentation/kbuild/namespaces.rst

According to the following patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11178727/
(doc: move namespaces.rst from kbuild/ to core-api/)

The file namespaces.rst was moved from kbuild to core-api
and renamed to symbol-namespaces.rst.
Therefore, this patch changes the reference to the document
kbuild/namespaces.rst in hacking.rst to
core-api/symbol-namespaces.rst

Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford:
 "A small collection of -rc fixes. Mostly. One API addition, but that's
  because we wanted to use it in a fix. There's also a bug fix that is
  going to render the 5.5 kernel's soft-RoCE driver incompatible with
  all soft-RoCE versions prior, but it's required to actually implement
  the protocol according to the RoCE spec and required in order for the
  soft-RoCE driver to be able to successfully work with actual RoCE
  hardware.

  Summary:

   - Update Steve Wise info

   - Fix for soft-RoCE crc calculations (will break back compatibility,
     but only with the soft-RoCE driver, which has had this bug since it
     was introduced and it is an on-the-wire bug, but will make
