Linus Torvalds 937d6eefc7 Here's the main documentation changes for 5.5:
- Various kerneldoc script enhancements.
 
  - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to
    convert, but we're a ways from done still.
 
  - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last.  Now we just need
    to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
 
  - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of
    systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular).
 
  - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
    Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to
    load a lot of paper.
 
  - A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link:
    tags at commit time.
 
 Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters.
