Merge tag 'docs-5.4' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It's a somewhat calmer cycle for docs this time, as the churn of the
mass RST conversion is happily mostly behind us.
- A new document on reproducible builds.
- We finally got around to zapping the documentation for hardware
support that was removed in 2004; one doesn't want to rush these
things.
- The usual assortment of fixes, typo corrections, etc"
