docs-rst: fix LaTeX \DURole renewcommand with Sphinx 1.3+
PDF build on Kernel 4.9-rc? returns an error with Sphinx 1.3.x
and Sphinx 1.4.x, when trying to solve some cross-references.
The solution is to redefine the \DURole macro.
However, this is redefined too late. Move such redefinition to
LaTeX preamble and bind it to just the Sphinx versions where the
error is known to be present.
Tested by building the documentation on interactive mode:
make PDFLATEX=xelatex -C Documentation/output/./latex

Documentation/sphinx: set literal block highlight language to none
Set the default highlight language to "none", i.e. do not try to guess
the language and do automatic syntax highlighting on literal blocks.
Eyeballing around the generated documentation, we don't seem to actually
have a lot of literal blocks that would benefit from syntax
highlighting. The C code blocks we do have are typically very short, and
most of the literal blocks are things that shouldn't be highlighted (or,
do not have a pygments lexer). This seems to be true for literal blocks
both in the rst source files and in source code comments.
Not highlighting code is never wrong, but guessing the language wrong
almost invariably leads to silly or confusing highlighting.
At the time of writing, admin-guide/oops-tracing.rst and
admin-guide/ramoops.rst contain good examples of 1) a small C code
snippet not highlighted, 2) a hex dump highligted as who knows what, 3)
device tree block highlighted as C or maybe Python, 4) a terminal
interaction highlighted as code in some language, and finally, 5) some C
code snippets correctly identified as C. I think we're better off
disabling language guessing, and going by explicitly identified
languages for longer code blocks.
It is still possible to enable highlighting on an rst source file basis
using the highlight directive:
.. higlight:: language
and on a literal block basis using the code-block directive:
.. code-block:: language

One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use

Merge branch 'mauro-books' into docs-next
Merge Mauro's massive patch series creating the process and admin-guide
books. I think there's a lot of stuff to clean up here, but there's no
point in holding things up for that.
Mauro sez:
This patch series continues the efforts of converting the Linux Kernel
documentation to Sphinx.
It contains text to ReST conversion of several files under Documentation,
and a few ones under the main dir (README, REPORTING-BUGS).
All patches on this series can be found on my development tree:
https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/log/?h=lkml-books-v2
The Kernel docs html output after this series can be seen at:
