2024-10-16timers/Documentation: Cleanup delay/sleep documentationAnna-Maria Behnsen
The documentation which tries to give advices how to properly inserting delays or sleeps is outdated. The file name is 'timers-howto.rst' which might be misleading as it is only about delay and sleep mechanisms and not how to use timers. Update the documentation by integrating the important parts from the related function descriptions and move it all into a self explaining file with the name "delay_sleep_functions.rst".

2019-07-15docs: add some directories to the main documentation indexMauro Carvalho Chehab
The contents of those directories were orphaned at the documentation body. While those directories could likely be moved to be inside some guide, I'm opting to just adding their indexes to the main one, removing the :orphan: and adding the SPDX header. For the drivers, the rationale is that the documentation contains a mix of Kernelspace, uAPI and admin-guide. So, better to keep them on separate directories, as we've be doing with similar subsystem-specific docs that were not split yet. For the others, well... I'm too lazy to do the move. Also, it seems to make sense to keep at least some of those at the main dir (like kbuild, for example). In any case, a latter patch could do the move.

2019-06-14docs: timers: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab
The conversion here is really trivial: just a bunch of title markups and very few puntual changes is enough to make it to be parsed by Sphinx and generate a nice html. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
