7d2b39ab9b docs: Include uaccess docs from the right file
Documentation/core-api/kernel-api.rst was including kerneldoc comments from
arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h, but the relevant comments moved to
.../uaccess.h some time ago.  Correct the include to pick up the comments
and eliminate a warning.

ecebcd4da6 docs: Do not include from kernel/rcu/srcu.c
That file went away with commit bd8cc5a062 (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.

61ca5fd192 Make the main documentation title less Geocities
This is probably the lamest patch ever, but then again "Welcome to The
Linux Kernel's documentation" is nearly equally lame. Really, we don't
need to "Welcome" people to the documentation, just tell them what the
site is about.

82a1955162 Docs: fix table problems in ras.rst
Two table problems caused the PDF build to fail:

 - Evidently multirow cells are not appreciated in table headers,
   so remove such from the "CS Rows" table.

 - The logging message structure table was incorrectly formatted,
   with two "+" instead of "|".  The HTML build is forgiving of such
   things, but PDF is not.

6312811be2 Merge remote-tracking branch 'mauro-exp/docbook3' into death-to-docbook
Mauro says:

This patch series convert the remaining DocBooks to ReST.

The first version was originally
send as 3 patch series:

   [PATCH 00/36] Convert DocBook documents to ReST
   [PATCH 0/5] Convert more books to ReST
   [PATCH 00/13] Get rid of DocBook

The lsm book was added as if it were a text file under
Documentation. The plan is to merge it with another file
under Documentation/security, after both this series and
a security Documentation patch series gets merged.

It also adjusts some Sphinx-pedantic errors/warnings on
some kernel-doc markups.

I also added some patches here to add PDF output for all
existing ReST books.
