Randy Dunlap eacc670fa4 documentation: core-api: rearrange a few kernel-api chapters and sections
Rearrange some kernel-api chapters and sections to group them
together better.

- move Bit Operations from Basic C Library Functions to Basic
  Kernel Library Functions (now adjacent to Bitmap Operations since
  they are not typical C library functions)

- move Sorting from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions
  since sort functions are more Basic than Math Functions

- move Text Searching from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library
  Functions (keep Sorting and Searching close to each other)

- combine CRC and Math functions together into the (newly named)
  CRC and Math Functions chapter

Linus Torvalds 7832681b36 A relatively calm cycle for the docs tree again.
- The old driver statement has been added to the kernel docs.
 
   - We have a couple of new helper scripts.  find-unused-docs.sh from Sayli
     Karnic will point out kerneldoc comments that are not actually used in
     the documentation.  Jani Nikula's documentation-file-ref-check finds
     references to non-existing files.
 
   - A new ftrace document from Steve Rostedt.
 
   - Vinod Koul converted the dmaengine docs to RST
 
 Beyond that, it's mostly simple fixes.

  This set reaches outside of Documentation/ a bit more than most. In
  all cases, the changes are to comment docs, mostly from Randy, in

Paul E. McKenney 533966c8ad doc: Fix RCU's docbook options
Commit 764f80798b ("doc: Add RCU files to docbook-generation files")
added :external: options for RCU source files in the file
Documentation/core-api/kernel-api.rst.  However, this now means nothing,
so this commit removes them.

Randy Dunlap 7d7363e403 documentation: kernel-api: add more info on bitmap functions
There are some good comments about bitmap operations in lib/bitmap.c
and include/linux/bitmap.h, so format them for document generation and
pull them into core-api/kernel-api.rst.

I converted the "tables" of functions from using tabs to using spaces
so that they are more readable in the source file and in the generated
output.
