Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux

The current kref and kobject documentation may be insufficient to understand these common pitfalls regarding object lifetime and object releasing. Add a bit more documentation and improve the warnings seen by the user, pointing to the right piece of documentation. Also, it's important to understand that making fun of people publicly is not at all helpful, doesn't provide any value, and it's not a healthy way of encouraging developers to do better. "Mocking mercilessly" will, if anything, make developers feel bad and go away. This kind of behavior should not be encouraged or justified.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
