Mauro Carvalho Chehab 877b638ff8 iostats.txt: update it to cover recent Kernels
Everything there that it is said for 2.6 also applies on
current 4.x Kernels. So, update the information there.

While here, use ``foo`` for literals.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 378012cf68 iostats.txt: standardize document format
Each text file under Documentation follows a different
format. Some doesn't even have titles!

Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx:

- promote main title level;
- mark literal blocks as such;
- Add blank lines to avoid Sphinx errors.

David P Hilton 69963a072c iostats.txt: add easy-to-find description for field 6
iostats.txt has a merged description of fields 2 and 6, but it's not obvious.
This patch adds a field 6, pointing to the merged description of field 6 in
field 2.

Randy Dunlap 9d2e157d97 Documentation/iostats.txt: bit-size reference etc.
- correction that disk stats values are native-word-sized
  32-bit or 64-bit values, not always 32-bi values
- drop "Last modified" entry; use git for that
- fix a few typos
- change "cpu" to "CPU"

Jens Axboe 165125e1e4 [BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef
Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper
struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of
the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with
the proper type.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
