Merge branch 'mauro' into docs-next
Mauro says:
This is the second part of a series I wrote sometime ago where I manually
convert lots of files to be properly parsed by Sphinx as ReST files.
As it touches on lot of stuff, this series is based on today's linux-next,
at tag next-
20190617.
The first version of this series had 57 patches. The first part with 28 patches
were already merged. Right now, there are still ~76 patches pending applying
(including this series), and that's because I opted to do ~1 patch per converted
directory.
That sounds too much to be send on a single round. So, I'm opting to split
it on 3 parts for the conversion, plus a final patch adding orphaned books
to existing ones.
Those patches should probably be good to be merged either by subsystem
maintainers or via the docs tree.
I opted to mark new files not included yet to the main index.rst (directly or
indirectly) with the :orphan: tag, in order to avoid adding warnings to the
build system. This should be removed after we find a "home" for all
the converted files within the new document tree arrangement, after I
submit the third part.

scripts: sphinx-pre-install: change the output order
When the script detects the need for an upgrade, it will
print either a warning or a note.
Let's change a little bit the order where messages will be
displayed, in order to make easier for the user to identify
the more important messages.
It should now be like this:
Detected OS: Fedora release 31 (Thirty One).
Sphinx version: 1.7.9
Note: It is recommended at least Sphinx version 2.4.4 if you need PDF support.
To upgrade Sphinx, use:
/usr/bin/python3 -m venv sphinx_2.4.4
. sphinx_2.4.4/bin/activate
pip install -r ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt
If you want to exit the virtualenv, you can use:
deactivate
