Merge tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6
Pull documentation fixes from Jonathan Corbet: "So this is my first pull request since I rashly agreed to look after the documentation subtree. It contains some typo fixes, a few minor documentation improvements, and, most importantly, fixes for a couple of build problems in various bits of sample code. I fully intend to start sending pull requests with signed tags. However, due to poor planning on my part and the general obnoxiousness of life, I'm 2000 miles away from my private key which is sitting on a powered-down machine. This should be fixed before my next request. Meanwhile git.lwn.net is a machine under my control, the patches are all trivial, and all have done time in linux-next" * tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6: Documentation/SubmittingPatches: Reported-by tags and permission Documentation: remove outdated references to the linux-next wiki Documentation: Restrict TSC test code to x86 doc: kernel-parameters.txt: Add ide-generic.probe-mask vdso: don't require 64-bit math in standalone test Documentation: Add CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_DEFAULT_OFF case Documentation: Add default kmemleak off case in kernel-parameters.txt Docs: Document that the sticky bit is understood by hugetlbfs DocBook: Reduce noise from make cleandocs Documentation: fix vdso_standalone_test_x86 on 32-bit Documentation: dt-bindings: Explain order in patch series Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-ibft: fix a typo

+ ide-generic.probe-mask= [HW] (E)IDE subsystem
+ Format: <int>
+ Probe mask for legacy ISA IDE ports. Depending on
+ platform up to 6 ports are supported, enabled by
+ setting corresponding bits in the mask to 1. The
+ default value is 0x0, which has a special meaning.
+ On systems that have PCI, it triggers scanning the
+ PCI bus for the first and the second port, which
+ are then probed. On systems without PCI the value
+ of 0x0 enables probing the two first ports as if it
+ was 0x3.
