This looks good; thanks! Random thought while looking through it: there's
stuff in the driver-api that seems like maybe it should move into the
core (e.g. Documentation/driver-api/basics.rst) but I'm not sure what
the line between "core" and "driver" is. I would think the "driver API"
docs should be driver-specific, in which case much of basics.rst should
be moved into "core". Regardless, this series seems like a good step in
the right direction.
