    Make dnotify_test.c source file and add it to Makefile so that
    bitrot can be prevented.

    Documentation/laptops/laptop-mode.txt:
    Expose example and tool source files in the Documentation/ directory in
    their own files instead of being buried (almost hidden) in readme/txt files.
    This should help to prevent bitrot.

    This will make them more visible/usable to users who may need
    to use them, to developers who may need to test with them, and
    to anyone who would fix/update them if they were more visible.

    Also, if any of these possibly should not be in the kernel tree at
    all, it will be clearer that they are here and we can discuss if
    they should be removed.

    Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
    since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
    text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to
    be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
    instead of bad examples.

    Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
    Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.

    Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
    Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
    However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
    to be installed (for userspace builds).

    Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
    sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.
