Backmerge tag 'v4.11-rc6' into drm-next
Linux 4.11-rc6
drm-misc needs 4.11-rc5, may as well fix conflicts with rc6.
A patch documenting how to specify which kernels a particular fix should
be backported to (seemingly) inadvertently added a minus sign after the
kernel version. This particular stable-tag format had never been used
prior to this patch, and was neither present when the patch in question
was first submitted (it was added in v2 without any comment).
Drop the minus sign to avoid any confusion.
Fixes: fdc81b7910 ("stable_kernel_rules: Add clause about specification of kernel versions to patch.")

The original text was not clear if white space or other harmless patches

that we should be more strict about sending regression fixes only.

Having the kernel-documentation at the topmost level doesn't
allow generating a separate PDF file for it. Also, makes harder
to add extra contents. So, place it on a sub-dir.

The creation of the admin and process guides is a great thing, but, without
care, we risk replacing a messy docs directory with a few messy Sphinx
books. In an attempt to head that off and show what I'm thinking, here's a
set of tweaks that, I think, make the existing Sphinx-formatted docs a bit
more accessible.
This is ancient stuff and we don't do things this way anymore. In the
absence of simply deleting the document, at least add a warning to it.

The main goal here was to get the subsections to show in the TOC as they do
for all the other documents. Also call out the DCO in the section title
since it's important.
