Disable Sphinx SmartyPants in HTML output
The handling of dashes in particular results in confusing
documentation in a number of instances, since "--" becomes an
en-dash. This disables SmartyPants wholesale, losing smart quotes
along with smart dashes.
With Sphinx 1.6 we could fine-tune the conversion, using the new
smartquotes and smartquotes_action settings.

doc: RCU callback locks need only _bh, not necessarily _irq
The UP.rst file calls for locks acquired within RCU callback functions
to use _irq variants (spin_lock_irqsave() or similar), which does work,

(spin_lock_bh() or similar), while noting that _irq does work.

It will still produce a table, but the html output is wrong, as
it won't interpret the second line as the continuation for the
first ones, because identation doesn't match.
After the change, the output looks a way better and we got rid

None of them added a Documentation/isdn/mISDN.cert file.
Also, whatever were supposed to be written there on that time,
probably doesn't make any sense nowadays, as I doubt isdn would

i2c: xiic: Add max_read_len quirk
This driver does not support reading more than 255 bytes at once because
the register for storing the number of bytes to read is only 8 bits. Add
a max_read_len quirk to enforce this.
This was found when using this driver with the SFP driver, which was
previously reading all 256 bytes in the SFP EEPROM in one transaction.
This caused a bunch of hard-to-debug errors in the xiic driver since the
driver/logic was treating the number of bytes to read as zero.
Rejecting transactions that aren't supported at least allows the problem
to be diagnosed more easily.

lockref: Limit number of cmpxchg loop retries
The lockref cmpxchg loop is unbound as long as the spinlock is not
taken. Depending on the hardware implementation of compare-and-swap
a high number of loop retries might happen.
Add an upper bound to the loop to force the fallback to spinlocks
after some time. A retry value of 100 should not impact any hardware
that does not have this issue.
With the retry limit the performance of an open-close testcase
improved between 60-70% on ThunderX2.
Architectures that support memory tagging have a need to perform untagging
(stripping the tag) in various parts of the kernel. This patch adds an
untagged_addr() macro, which is defined as noop for architectures that do
not support memory tagging. The oncoming patch series will define it at
least for sparc64 and arm64.
