  • Rationale:
    Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
    as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

    Deterministic algorithm:
    For each file:
    For each line:
    If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
    For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
    If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
    return 200 OK and serve the same content:
    Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

  • Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
    created by changeset 1d596dee3862 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").

    As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
    Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
    place.

    Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
    will likely make things easier for developers.

  • From now on, I'll start using my @kernel.org as my development e-mail.

    As such, let's remove the entries that point to the old
    mchehab@s-opensource.com at MAINTAINERS file.

    For the files written with a copyright with mchehab@s-opensource,
    let's keep Samsung on their names, using mchehab+samsung@kernel.org,
    in order to keep pointing to my employer, with sponsors the work.

    For the files written before I join Samsung (on July, 4 2013),
    let's just use mchehab@kernel.org.

    For bug reports, we can simply point to just kernel.org, as
    this will reach my mchehab+samsung inbox anyway.

  • Keeping both rst and in-file documentation in sync can be harsh.

    So, simplify the script's internal documntation to a bare minimum,
    and add a mention to the ReST file with its full documentation.

    This way, a quick help is still available at the command line,
    while the complete one is maintained at the ReST format.

    As we won't be using pad2rst anymore, do a cleanup at the ReST
    file.
