Merge tag 'docs-for-linus' of git://git.lwn.net/linux-2.6

Pull documentation fixes from Jonathan Corbet:
 "So this is my first pull request since I rashly agreed to look after
  the documentation subtree.  It contains some typo fixes, a few minor
  documentation improvements, and, most importantly, fixes for a couple
  of build problems in various bits of sample code.

  I fully intend to start sending pull requests with signed tags.
  However, due to poor planning on my part and the general obnoxiousness
  of life, I'm 2000 miles away from my private key which is sitting on a
  powered-down machine.  This should be fixed before my next request.

  Meanwhile git.lwn.net is a machine under my control, the patches are
  all trivial, and all have done time in linux-next"

ide-generic.probe-mask= [HW] (E)IDE subsystem
Format: <int>
Probe mask for legacy ISA IDE ports. Depending on
platform up to 6 ports are supported, enabled by
setting corresponding bits in the mask to 1. The
default value is 0x0, which has a special meaning.
On systems that have PCI, it triggers scanning the
PCI bus for the first and the second port, which
are then probed. On systems without PCI the value
of 0x0 enables probing the two first ports as if it
was 0x3.
