Alexander Graf cbe487fac7 KVM: PPC: Add mtsrin PV code
This is the guest side of the mtsr acceleration. Using this a guest can now
call mtsrin with almost no overhead as long as it ensures that it only uses
it with (MSR_IR|MSR_DR) == 0. Linux does that, so we're good.

Alexander Graf 15711e9c92 KVM: PPC: Add get_pvinfo interface to query hypercall instructions
We need to tell the guest the opcodes that make up a hypercall through
interfaces that are controlled by userspace. So we need to add a call
for userspace to allow it to query those opcodes so it can pass them
on.

This is required because the hypercall opcodes can change based on
the hypervisor conditions. If we're running in hardware accelerated
hypervisor mode, a hypercall looks different from when we're running
without hardware acceleration.

Randy Dunlap 39d709392f docbook: skip files with no docs since they generate scary warnings
Fix docbook templates that reference files that do not contain the
expected kernel-doc notation.

Fixes these warnings:

  Warning(arch/x86/include/asm/unaligned.h): no structured comments found
  Warning(lib/vsprintf.c): no structured comments found

These cause errors in the generated html output, like below, so drop
these lines.

  Name
  arch/x86/include/asm/unaligned.h - Document generation inconsistency
  Oops
  Warning
  The template for this document tried to insert the structured comment from the file arch/x86/include/asm/unaligned.h at this point, but none was found. This dummy section is inserted to allow generation to continue.

Johannes Berg eda603f6cd docbook: warn on unused doc entries
When you don't use !E or !I but only !F, then it's very easy to miss
including some functions, structs etc.  in documentation.  To help
finding which ones were missed, allow printing out the unused ones as
warnings.

For example, using this on mac80211 yields a lot of warnings like this:

  Warning: didn't use docs for DOC: mac80211 workqueue
  Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_max_queues
  Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_change
  Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_conf

when generating the documentation for it.

David Brownell c956126c13 gpio: doc updates
There's been some recent confusion about error checking GPIO numbers.
briefly, it should be handled mostly during setup, when gpio_request() is
called, and NEVER by expectig gpio_is_valid to report more than
never-usable GPIO numbers.
