Many archs have termbits.h as octal numbers. It makes hard for humans
to parse the magnitude of large numbers correctly and to compare with
hex ones of the same define.
Convert octal values to hex.
First step is an automated conversion with:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep 'termbits\.h'); do
awk --non-decimal-data '/^#define\s+[A-Z][A-Z0-9]*\s+0[0-9]/ {
l=int(((length($3) - 1) * 3 + 3) / 4);
repl = sprintf("0x%0" l "x", $3);
print gensub(/[^[:blank:]]+/, repl, 3);
next} {print}' $i > $i~;
mv $i~ $i;
done
On top of that, some manual processing on alignment and number of zeros.
In addition, small tweaks to formatting of a few comments on the same
lines.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
