Merge tag 'docs-5.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
 "A fairly normal cycle for documentation stuff. We have a new document
  on perf security, more Italian translations, more improvements to the
  memory-management docs, improvements to the pathname lookup
  documentation, and the usual array of smaller fixes.

  As is often the case, there are a few reaches outside of
  Documentation/ to adjust kerneldoc comments"
