Subject[RESEND PATCH 0/2] docs: Add some struct file refcounting information
Date
[No changes since the previous mailing; resending in hopes that somebody
will actually look at it :) I may yet try to sneak the first patch into
5.1 if nobody screams; the second one definitely needs a more affirmative
ack, though. ]

Al Viro's recent "braindump" on how struct file refcounting works is too
good to lose, so let's capture it in Documentation/. There are two changes
here:

- Clean up the filesystem book, move stuff around, and generally try to
create some order here. No text changes other than some connecting
text.

- Bring in Al's text, with a fair amount of language tweaking and later
corrections applied.

Hopefully this is just the beginning.

Jonathan Corbet (2):
docs: Bring some order to filesystem documentation
docs: Add struct file refcounting and SCM_RIGHTS mess info
