Convert the Documentation front page to use the heading adornments
that are documented in doc-guide/sphinx.rst for document title and
chapters. I.e., convert most section headings to chapters.
This leaves "Indices and tables" as a chapter entry at the same level
as the other chapters.
The only visual difference from before to after is that the "Indices
and tables" heading is smaller and has more vertical whitespace
preceding it (although that may depend on the web browser being used).

The Linux Kernel documentation
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
This is the top level of the kernel's documentation tree. Kernel
|
|
documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress;
|
|
that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered
|
|
documents into a coherent whole. Please note that improvements to the
|
|
documentation are welcome; join the linux-doc list at vger.kernel.org if
|
|
you want to help out.
|
|
|
|
Working with the development community
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
The essential guides for interacting with the kernel's development
|
|
community and getting your work upstream.

kernel.

User-oriented documentation
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
The following manuals are written for *users* of the kernel — those who are
|
|
trying to get it to work optimally on a given system and application
|
|
developers seeking information on the kernel's user-space APIs.
|
|

|
|
|
|
See also: the `Linux man pages <https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/>`_,
|
|
which are kept separately from the kernel's own documentation.
|
|
|
|
Firmware-related documentation
|
|
==============================

|
The following holds information on the kernel's expectations regarding the
|
|
platform firmwares.

Other documentation
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
There are several unsorted documents that don't seem to fit on other parts
|
|
of the documentation body, or may require some adjustments and/or conversion
|
|
to ReStructured Text format, or are simply too old.
