2009-02-22docbook: split kernel-api for device-driversRandy Dunlap
The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others, so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.) and device drivers/device subsystems. This allows these docbooks to be generated in parallel. (This reduced the docbook processing time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to about 2min:01sec.) The chapters that were moved from kernel-api to device-drivers are: Driver Basics Device drivers infrastructure Parallel Port Devices Message-based devices Sound Devices 16x50 UART Driver Frame Buffer Library Input Subsystem Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) I2C and SMBus Subsystem Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
