ee2fe81cdc Merge tag 'docs-6.18' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all
  over:

   - Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the
     "literal include" mode.

   - Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
     kernel-doc technical debt. The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
     converted to Python and updated for current systems.

   - A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate
     HTML redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site
     hosting the rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.

   - Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink
     protocol.

   - A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.

  ... and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes,
  etc"

3ed17349f1 platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix WMAB call in fan_mode_store()
When WMAB is called to set the fan mode, the new mode is read from either
bits 0-1 or bits 4-5 (depending on the value of some other EC register).
Thus when WMAB is called with bits 4-5 zeroed and called again with
bits 0-1 zeroed, the second call undoes the effect of the first call.
This causes writes to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fan_mode to have
no effect (and causes reads to always report a status of zero).

Fix this by calling WMAB once, with the mode set in bits 0,1 and 4,5.
When the fan mode is returned from WMAB it always has this form, so
there is no need to preserve the other bits.  As a bonus, the driver
now supports the "Performance" fan mode seen in the LG-provided Windows
control app, which provides less aggressive CPU throttling but louder
fan noise and shorter battery life.

Also, correct the documentation to reflect that 0 corresponds to the
default mode (what the Windows app calls "Optimal") and 1 corresponds
to the silent mode.
