There is currently very little documentation in the kernel on maintainer
level tasks. In particular there are no documents on creating pull
requests to submit to Linus.
Quoting Greg Kroah-Hartman on LKML:
Anyway, this actually came up at the kernel summit / maintainer
meeting a few weeks
This updates basics.rst to include refcount_t so it can be referenced by
other .rst files, fixes a kernel-doc typo in refcount.h so the struct
will be documented, and enhances the markup of the refcount-vs-atomic doc.

This builds on the "refcount-vs-atomic.rst" patch.

The current hid-multitouch driver only allow the report of two

device supports it.

The patch title should not document why but should document what the patch
does. Checkpatch warns about that.
Perhpas this would make a better title: "fix short topic underline"
