Merge tag 'docs/v5.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media

Pull documentation updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:

- kernel-doc markup fixes

- ReST fixes

- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)

After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).

As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.

The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.

PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

Basically, the internal parts is shown with :export:, instead
of :internal:. Yet, there are some other exported docs that
aren't at the document, because they lack :identifiers:.

So, instead, let's just use :export: at the kAPI part of
the documentation.

Pull pstore updates from Kees Cook:
"Fixes and new features for pstore.

This is a pretty big set of changes (relative to past pstore pulls),
but it has been in -next for a while. The biggest change here is the
ability to support a block device as a pstore backend, which has been
desired for a while. A lot of additional fixes and refactorings are
also included, mostly in support of the new features.

- refactor pstore locking for safer module unloading (Kees Cook)

- remove orphaned records from pstorefs when backend unloaded (Kees
Cook)

- refactor dump_oops parameter into max_reason (Pavel Tatashin)

- introduce pstore/zone for common code for contiguous storage
(WeiXiong Liao)

- introduce pstore/blk for block device backend (WeiXiong Liao)

- introduce mtd backend (WeiXiong Liao)"

mtd: Support kmsg dumper based on pstore/blk

This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more
powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to
a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files
in the mounted pstore filesystem.

To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set
as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see
Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst

This solves a number of issues:
- Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing
panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg
dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one.
- Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices.
MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher
level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump
configuration, etc.
- Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including
presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and
supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc.

pstore/blk: Support non-block storage devices

Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls
pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself.

In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices,
where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no
way to remove records stored to an MTD.
