* Documentation: stable-kernel-rules: fix stable-tag formatJohan Hovold2017-04-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A patch documenting how to specify which kernels a particular fix should be backported to (seemingly) inadvertently added a minus sign after the kernel version. This particular stable-tag format had never been used prior to this patch, and was neither present when the patch in question was first submitted (it was added in v2 without any comment). Drop the minus sign to avoid any confusion. Fixes: fdc81b7910ad ("stable_kernel_rules: Add clause about specification of kernel versions to patch.")

* docs-rst: add documents to development-processMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-10-241-0/+181
Add several documents to the development-process ReST book. As we don't want renames, use symlinks instead, keeping those documents on their original place. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
