Our documentation encourages the use of list-table formats, but that advice
runs counter to the objective of keeping the plain-text documentation as
useful and readable as possible. Turn that advice around the other way so
that people don't keep adding these tables.

Commit f546ff0c0c ("Move our minimum Sphinx version to 1.7") raised
the minimum version to 1.7.
For pdfdocs, sphinx_pre_install says:
note: If you want pdf, you need at least Sphinx 2.4.4.
, and current requirements.txt installs Sphinx 2.4.4.
Update Sphinx versions mentioned in docs and remove a note on earlier
Sphinx versions.
Update zh_CN and it_IT translations as well.

Currently, there's no way to exclude identifiers from
a kernel-doc markup. Add support for it.

"A handful of late-arriving docs fixes, along with a patch changing a
lot of HTTP links to HTTPS that had to be yanked and redone before the
first pull"
* tag 'docs-5.8-2' of git://git.lwn.net/linux:
docs/memory-barriers.txt/kokr: smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic(): update Documentation
Documentation: devres: add missing entry for devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource()
Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: documentation
docs: it_IT: address invalid reference warnings
doc: zh_CN: use doc reference to resolve undefined label warning
docs: Update the location of the LF NDA program
docs: dev-tools: coccinelle: underlines
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);
- The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
drivers and their dependencies;
- The testing drivers now has a separate directory;
- added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;
- The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
making it in good shape.
- Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;
- Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;
- The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
standards;
- Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
is located at the device;
- VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;
- Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").
As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.
Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.

Documentation should lead by example, so here's a basic maintainer entry

The 'functions' directive is not only for functions, but also works for
structs/unions. So the name is misleading. This patch renames it to
'identifiers', which specific the functions/types to be included in
documentation. We keep the old name as an alias of the new one before
all documentation are updated.
