This series kills the long standing MODVERDIR.
Since MODVERDIR has a flat structure, it cannot avoid a race

Added check in checkpatch.pl to
1. Deprecate strcpy() in favor of strscpy().
2. Deprecate strlcpy() in favor of strscpy().
3. Deprecate strncpy() in favor of strscpy() or strscpy_pad().
Updated strncpy() section in Documentation/process/deprecated.rst
to cover strscpy_pad() case

Convert docs to ReST and add them to the arch-specific
book.
The conversion here was trivial, as almost every file there
was already using an elegant format close to ReST standard.
The changes were mostly to mark literal blocks and add a few
missing section title identifiers.

Currently, all index files should be manually added to the

If we try to build a book with asian characters with XeLaTeX
and the font is not available, it will produce an error.
So, instead, add a logic at conf.py to detect if the proper
font is installed.
This will avoid an error while building the document, although
