The cdrom.txt and hdio.txt have their own particular syntax.
In order to speedup the conversion, I used a small ancillary
perl script:

$d .= $_ while(<>);
$d =~ s/(\nCDROM\S+)\s+(\w[^\n]*)/$1\n\t$2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\nHDIO\S+)\s+(\w[^\n]*)/$1\n\t$2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*usage:)[\s\n]*(\w[^\n]*)/$1:\n\n\t $2\n/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*)(E\w+[\s\n]*\w[^\n]*)/$1- $2/g;
$d =~ s/(\n\s*)(inputs|outputs|notes):\s*(\w[^\n]*)/$1$2:\n\t\t$3\n/g;

The conversion itself is simple: add a markup for the
title of this file and add markups for both tables.
Yet, the big table here with IOCTL numbers is badly formatted:
on several lines, the "Include File" column has some values that
are bigger than the reserved space there.
Also, on several places, a comment was misplaced at the "Include
File" space.
So, most of the work here is to actually ensure that each field
will be properly fixed.
Also worth to mention that some URLs have the asterisk character
on it. Well, Sphinx has an issue with asterisks in the middle
of an string. As this is URL, use the alternate format: %2A.
As a side effect of this patch, it is now a lot easier to see that
some reserved ioctl numbers are missing the include files
where it is supposed to be used.
PS.: While this is part of a subdir, I opted to convert this
single file alone, as this file has a potential of conflicts,
as most subsystem maintainers touch it.

Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel:
- Improve clarity, locking and APIs related to the 'hmm mirror' feature
merged last cycle. In linux-next we now see AMDGPU and nouveau to be

- Remove old or transitional hmm APIs. These are hold overs from the past
with no users, or APIs that existed only to manage cross tree conflicts.
There are still a few more of these cleanups that didn't make the merge
window cut off.
- Improve some core mm APIs:
* export alloc_pages_vma() for driver use
* refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage
DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations
* refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap
struct
