The user/admin documentation of cpufreq is badly outdated. It conains stale and/or inaccurate information along with things that are not particularly useful. Also, some of the important pieces are missing from it. For this reason, add a new user/admin document for cpufreq containing current information to admin-guide and drop the old outdated .txt documents it is replacing. Since there will be more PM documents in admin-guide going forward, create a separate directory for them and put the cpufreq document in there right away. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

We're still pretty far away from anything like a consensus, but there's clearly a lot of people who prefer an as-light as possible approach to converting existing .txt files to .rst.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "A fix and regression test case for nvdimm namespace label compatibility. Details: - An "nvdimm namespace label" is metadata on an nvdimm that provisions dimm capacity into a "namespace" that can host a block device / dax-filesytem, or a device-dax character device. A namespace is an object that other operating environment and platform firmware needs to comprehend for capabilities like booting from an nvdimm. The label metadata contains a checksum that Linux was not calculating correctly leading to other environments rejecting the Linux label. These have received a build success notification from the kbuild robot, and a positive test result from Nick who reported the problem" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: nfit, libnvdimm: fix interleave set cookie calculation tools/testing/nvdimm: make iset cookie predictable
