The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers is phased out for various reasons. Documenting calling contexts of functions with 'in_interrupt()' or '!in_interrupt()' is imprecise: For a function which might sleep the condition is preemptible task context, which is not what '!in_interrupt()' describes. Replace the context docummentation with plain text and make them match reality. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

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.
