Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"There's been a fair amount of activity in Documentation/ this time
around:
- Lots of work aligning Documentation/ABI with reality, done by
Aishwarya Pant.
- The trace documentation has been converted to RST by Changbin Du
- I thrashed up kernel-doc to deal with a parsing issue and to try to
make the code more readable. It's still a 20+-year-old Perl hack,
though.
- Lots of other updates, typo fixes, and more"

A number of architecture ports are obsolete and getting dropped,
so we no longer want to track the respective features.
We already removed the lines for metag and mn10300, this does
the same edits for all the others.
For the remaining 21 architectures, this shows how many are known
to implement each given feature:

As explained by Michal Marek at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/31/189
silentoldconfig has become a misnomer. It has become an internal interface
so remove it from "make help" and Documentation/ to stop confusing people
using it as seen for instance at
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/835632 Don't remove it from
kconfig/Makefile yet not to break any (other) tool using it.
On the other hand, correct and expand its description in the help of
the (internal) scripts/kconfig/conf.c
