Subject: [RFC PATCH 00/12] advsync: Rename LOCK/UNLOCK to ACQUIRE/RELEASE

Hi Paul,

This series mostly corresponds to commit 2e4f5382d12a ("locking/doc:
Rename LOCK/UNLOCK to ACQUIRE/RELEASE") in Linux kernel repository.
Although Documentation/memory-barriers.txt has a lot of updated
contents after the import to perfbook, this series basically
does substitution of existing "LOCK/UNLOCK".

Patches 1--3 do simple substitutions.
Patch 4 does another replacement not included in the original commit.
Patch 5 is an attempt to add a footnote on "LOCK/UNLOCK" wording. You
may want to rewrite the text of the footnote.
Patch 6 replaces some of "the" with "a/an". I think they are reasonable,
but this is from an non-native POV. I might missing something.
Patch 7 is to go along with current wording in memory-barriers.txt.
Patch 8 is a big patch in line count, but it just adds proper nbsps
(in LaTeX sense).
Patch 9 adjusts the position of a footnote appended in the previous
patch set.
Patch 10 is an independent trivial typo fix.
Patches 11 and 12 are tweaks for a better layout.

                                      Thanks, Akira
