docs: describe how to quickly build a trimmed kernel

Add a text explaining how to quickly build a kernel, as that's something
users will often have to do when they want to report an issue or test
proposed fixes. This is a huge and frightening task for quite a few
users these days, as many rely on pre-compiled kernels and have never
built their own. They find help on quite a few websites explaining the
process in various ways, but those howtos often omit important details
or make things too hard for the 'quickly build just for testing' case
that 'localmodconfig' is really useful for. Hence give users something
at hand to guide them, as that makes it easier for them to help with
testing, debugging, and fixing the kernel.

To keep the complexity at bay, the document explicitly focuses on how to
compile the kernel on commodity distributions running on commodity
hardware. People that deal with less common distributions or hardware
will often know their way around already anyway.

The text describes a few oddities of Arch and Debian that were found by
the author and a few volunteers that tested the described procedure.
There are likely more such quirks that need to be covered as well as a
few things the author will have missed -- but one has to start
somewhere.

The document heavily uses anchors and links to them, which makes things
slightly harder to read in the source form. But the intended target
audience is way more likely to read rendered versions of this text on
pages like docs.kernel.org anyway -- and there those anchors and links
allow easy jumps to the reference section and back, which makes the
document a lot easier to work with for the intended target audience.

Aspects relevant for bisection were left out on purpose, as that is a
related, but in the end different use case. The rough plan is to have a
second document with a similar style to cover bisection. The idea is to
reuse a few bits from this document and link quite often to entries in
the reference section with the help of the anchors in this text.

Merge tag 'docs-6.4' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"Commit volume in documentation is relatively low this time, but there
is still a fair amount going on, including:

- Reorganize the architecture-specific documentation under
Documentation/arch

This makes the structure match the source directory and helps to
clean up the mess that is the top-level Documentation directory a
bit. This work creates the new directory and moves x86 and most of
the less-active architectures there.

The current plan is to move the rest of the architectures in 6.5,
with the patches going through the appropriate subsystem trees.

- Some more Spanish translations and maintenance of the Italian
translation

- A new "Kernel contribution maturity model" document from Ted

- A new tutorial on quickly building a trimmed kernel from Thorsten

Plus the usual set of updates and fixes"

Add support for Rockchip RK860X regulators

Merge series from Cristian Ciocaltea <cristian.ciocaltea@collabora.com>:

This patch series introduces support for the Rockchip RK860X regulators,
while also providing a few fixes and improvements to the existing fan53555
driver.

RK8600/RK8601 are quite similar to the FAN53555 regulators.

RK8602/RK8603 are a bit different, having a wider output voltage
selection range, from 0.5 V to 1.5 V in 6.25 mV steps. They are used
in the Rock 5B board to power the ARM Cortex-A76 cores and the NPU.
