memory ordering guarantees that their atomic counterparts.
This adds a document outlining these differences (
Documentation/core-api/refcount-vs-atomic.rst) as well as
some other minor improvements.

...because there are none there, and I cannot figure out what would ever
have been of interest there. This eliminates this warning:
./kernel/sys.c:1: warning: no structured comments found
from the build.

The docs build complains:
./include/linux/init.h:1: warning: no structured comments found
The problem is that the comments in question were moved to module.h in
commit 0fd972a7d91d (module: relocate module_init from init.h to
module.h). Fix basics.rst to match.

That file went away with commit bd8cc5a062f4 (srcu: Remove Classic SRCU)
during the 4.13 merge window, leading to errors like:
Error: Cannot open file ./kernel/rcu/srcu.c
during the docs build.

The structs there at device table are used by other documentation
at the Kernel. So, add it to the driver API.

We don't need to keep it as a single large file anymore; split it up so
that it is easier to manage and the individual sections can be read
directly as plain files.
