Historically, the RGMII PHY modes specified in Device Trees have been
used inconsistently, often referring to the usage of delays on the PHY
side rather than describing the board; many drivers still implement this
incorrectly.
Require a comment in Devices Trees using these modes (usually mentioning
that the delay is realized on the PCB), so we can avoid adding more
incorrect uses (or will at least notice which drivers still need to be
fixed).

Commit f77bf01425 ("kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and
ldflags-y") deprecated these in 2007. The migration should have been
completed by now.

checkpatch.pl checks for several things related to sleep and delay
functions. In all warnings the outdated documentation is referenced. Also
in checkpatch kernel documentation the outdated documentation is
referenced.
Replace the links to the outdated documentation with links to the function
description.
Note: Update of the outdated checkpatch checks is done in a second step.

While include/linux/bitops.h brings in the BIT() macro, it was moved to
include/linux/bits.h in commit 8bd9cb51da ("locking/atomics, asm-generic:
Move some macros from <linux/bitops.h> to a new <linux/bits.h> file").
Since that commit BIT() has moved again into include/vdso/bits.h via
commit 3945ff37d2 ("linux/bits.h: Extract common header for vDSO").
I think the move to the vDSO header can be considered an implementation
detail, so for now update the checkpatch documentation to recommend use
of include/linux/bits.h.

Add documentation for kernel script checkpatch.pl.
This documentation is also parsed by checkpatch to
enable a verbose mode.
The checkpatch message types are grouped by usage. Under
each group the types are described briefly. 34 of such
types are documented.
