In preparation for conversion to RST format use the kernels favoured documentation column width. If we are going to do this we might as well do it thoroughly. Just do the paragraphs (not the indented stuff), the rest will be done during indentation fix up patch. This patch is whitespace only, no textual changes. Use 72 character column width for all paragraph sections. Tested-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Tobin C.

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.
