The conversion tools used during DocBook/LaTeX/Markdown->ReST conversion and some automatic rules which exists on certain text editors like LibreOffice turned ASCII characters into some UTF-8 alternatives that are better displayed on html and PDF. While it is OK to use UTF-8 characters in Linux, it is better to use the ASCII subset instead of using an UTF-8 equivalent character as it makes life easier for tools like grep, and are easier to edit with the some commonly used text/source code editors. Also, Sphinx already do such conversion automatically outside literal blocks: https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/user/smartquotes.html So, replace the occurences of the following UTF-8 characters: - U+2018 ('‘'): LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK - U+2019 ('’'): RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@xxxxxxxxxx> --- .../ABI/testing/sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar | 2 +- Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-platform-ipmi | 2 +- Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-platform-trackpoint | 2 +- Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-soc | 4 ++-- 4 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar index 57a037791403..a7fb8f1169f2 100644 --- a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar +++ b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar @@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ KernelVersion: 4.2 Description: This allows you to control each LED segment.
