Agreed.

Well, we might create a "kernel-c" domain, I guess. I suspect we'll 
need something like that anyway, in order to handle things like
per-subsystem declarations of the syscalls (specially ioctl), but
I've no idea how difficult would be to do so.

For now, I guess that's the easiest fix.

Thank you!

I suspect that that's it. There are a few trivial conflicts between
my tree and Daniel's one, as we both are adding new books at
Documentation/index.rst, but this is something that Stephen already
handled, and should be easy for Linus to handle as well.

Yet, if you prefer, you could pull from my docs-next branch, but
there are also lots of subsystem's patch on that, merged from
my master (stable) branch. So, if you pull from it and send to
Linus before me, you'll also be sending patches from the media
subsystem. Not really an issue, as, if Linus pull from my tree
later, he'll get only the few remains that aren't merged at my
docs-next branch.

Thanks,
Mauro
