Merge tag 'docs-6.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This was a moderately busy cycle for documentation, but nothing all that earth-shaking: - More Chinese translations, and an update to the Italian translations. The Japanese, Korean, and traditional Chinese translations are more-or-less unmaintained at this point, instead. - Some build-system performance improvements. - The removal of the archaic submitting-drivers.rst document, with the movement of what useful material that remained into other docs. - Improvements to sphinx-pre-install to, hopefully, give more useful suggestions. - A number of build-warning fixes Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, updates, and more" * tag 'docs-6.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (92 commits) docs: efi-stub: Fix paths for x86 / arm stubs Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of sched-stats to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of pci to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of pci-iov-howto to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of usage to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of testing-overview to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of sparse to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of kasan to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of iio_configfs to 5.19-rc8 doc:it_IT: align Italian documentation docs: Remove spurious tag from admin-guide/mm/overcommit-accounting.rst Documentation: process: Update email client instructions for Thunderbird docs: ABI: correct QEMU fw_cfg spec path doc/zh_CN: remove submitting-driver reference from docs docs: zh_TW: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: zh_CN: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: ko_KR: howto: remove reference to removed submitting-drivers docs: ja_JP: howto: remove reference to removed submitting-drivers docs: it_IT: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: process: remove outdated submitting-drivers.rst ...
