Merge tag 'docs-6.17' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle for docs, especially the build
system:

- The Perl kernel-doc script was added to 2.3.52pre1 just after the
turn of the millennium. Over the following 25 years, it accumulated
a vast amount of cruft, all in a language few people want to deal
with anymore. Mauro's Python replacement in 6.16 faithfully
reproduced all of the cruft in the hope of avoiding regressions.

Now that we have a more reasonable code base, though, we can work
on cleaning it up; many of the changes this time around are toward
that end.

- A reorganization of the ext4 docs into the usual TOC format.

- Various Chinese translations and updates.

- A new script from Mauro to help with docs-build testing.

- A new document for linked lists

- A sweep through MAINTAINERS fixing broken GitHub git:// repository
links.

...and lots of fixes and updates"

Documentation: ext4: Move inode table short docs into its own file

The short description of inode table is in bitmaps.rst alongside the
proper bitmpas documentation. The docs file is short enough that it fits
whole browser screen on desktop, which implies that when readers click
"Inode Table", they will essentially see bitmaps docs.

Move inode table short description.
