Documentation/vm/overcommit-accounting.rst says that the overcommit
amount can be set via vm.overcommit_ratio and vm.overcommit_kbytes.
Add a clarification that those only take effect in overcommit handling
mode 2 ("Don't overcommit"), i.e. they do not act as an "additional"
limit that is always enforced.

There were some things which made rendered document
look not very elegant. That was because:
1. Numbered lists were formatted in more of Markdown way
rather than true reStructuredText and so were displayed
as a plain text with leading numbers.
Well, moreover numbered lists were not needed as in all cases
we were just listing a couple of options w/o any intention to
follow any particular order, so a simpler unordered list fits
better and looks cleaner.
2. URL's of external resources were added as they are
(which is OK in a plain text, but make not much sense in
a HTML where we may use more human-friendly link names
with URL's hidden.
3. Some URL's had trailing slashes which were not really needed
Fix all items from above!

This is actually an overlay on the top of the RTD theme, which
requires to include first the RTD theme.
It should be noticed that, when the dark theme is used, the
DOCS_CSS files won't be the last CSS themes. So, it won't
override the dark.css style by default. So, it is needed
to force the them override with "!important".
This small script, for instance, produces a nice output with
the RTD dark theme:

Currently, an SEV-ES guest is terminated if the validation of the VMGEXIT
exit code or exit parameters fails.
The VMGEXIT instruction can be issued from userspace, even though
userspace (likely) can't update the GHCB. To prevent userspace from being
able to kill the guest, return an error through the GHCB when validation
fails rather than terminating the guest. For cases where the GHCB can't be
updated (e.g. the GHCB can't be mapped, etc.), just return back to the
guest.
The new error codes are documented in the lasest update to the GHCB
specification.

Use kvzalloc() to allocate KVM's buffer for SEV-ES's GHCB scratch area so
that KVM falls back to __vmalloc() if physically contiguous memory isn't
available. The buffer is purely a KVM software construct, i.e. there's
no need for it to be physically contiguous.

In commit c8c3735997 ("parisc: Enhance detection of synchronous cr16
clocksources") I assumed that CPUs on the same physical core are syncronous.
While booting up the kernel on two different C8000 machines, one with a
dual-core PA8800 and one with a dual-core PA8900 CPU, this turned out to be
wrong. The symptom was that I saw a jump in the internal clocks printed to the
syslog and strange overall behaviour. On machines which have 4 cores (2
dual-cores) the problem isn't visible, because the current logic already marked
the cr16 clocksource unstable in this case.
This patch now marks the cr16 interval timers unstable if we have more than one
CPU in the system, and it fixes this issue.

Commit d81ae8aac8 ("sched/uclamp: Fix initialization of struct
uclamp_rq") introduced a bug where uclamp_max of the rq is not reset to
match the woken up task's uclamp_max when the rq is idle.
The code was relying on rq->uclamp_max initialized to zero, so on first
enqueue
static inline void uclamp_rq_inc_id(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p,
enum uclamp_id clamp_id)
{
...
if (uc_se->value > READ_ONCE(uc_rq->value))
WRITE_ONCE(uc_rq->value, uc_se->value);
}
was actually resetting it. But since commit d81ae8aac8 changed the
default to 1024, this no longer works. And since rq->uclamp_flags is
also initialized to 0, neither above code path nor uclamp_idle_reset()
update the rq->uclamp_max on first wake up from idle.
This is only visible from first wake up(s) until the first dequeue to
idle after enabling the static key. And it only matters if the
uclamp_max of this task is < 1024 since only then its uclamp_max will be
effectively ignored.
Fix it by properly initializing rq->uclamp_flags = UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE to
ensure uclamp_idle_reset() is called which then will update the rq
uclamp_max value as expected.
