Now that several arch documents were converted to ReST,
add their indexes to Documentation/index.rst and remove the
:orphan: from them.

Rename the sparc documentation files to ReST, add an
index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html
output via the Sphinx build system.
There is an except from a document under oradax dir.
It doesn't seem to make much sense to convert this one
to ReST, so let's add it as an included document.
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.

ADI is a new feature supported on SPARC M7 and newer processors to allow
hardware to catch rogue accesses to memory. ADI is supported for data
fetches only and not instruction fetches. An app can enable ADI on its
data pages, set version tags on them and use versioned addresses to
access the data pages. Upper bits of the address contain the version
tag. On M7 processors, upper four bits (bits 63-60) contain the version
tag. If a rogue app attempts to access ADI enabled data pages, its
access is blocked and processor generates an exception. Please see
Documentation/sparc/adi.txt for further details.
This patch extends mprotect to enable ADI (TSTATE.mcde), enable/disable
MCD (Memory Corruption Detection) on selected memory ranges, enable
TTE.mcd in PTEs, return ADI parameters to userspace and save/restore ADI
version tags on page swap out/in or migration. ADI is not enabled by
default for any task. A task must explicitly enable ADI on a memory
range and set version tag for ADI to be effective for the task.

DAX is a coprocessor which resides on the SPARC M7 (DAX1) and M8
(DAX2) processor chips, and has direct access to the CPU's L3 caches
as well as physical memory. It can perform several operations on data
streams with various input and output formats. This driver provides a
transport mechanism and has limited knowledge of the various opcodes
and data formats. A user space library provides high level services
and translates these into low level commands which are then passed
into the driver and subsequently the hypervisor and the coprocessor.
The library is the recommended way for applications to use the
coprocessor, and the driver interface is not intended for general use.

The name field of of_platform_driver is just copied into the
included device_driver. By not overriding an already initialised
device_driver name, we can convert the drivers over time to stop using
the of_platform_driver name.
Also we were not copying the owner field from of_platform_driver, so do
the same with it.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
