The document describes NUMA memory policy and as it is a part of the Linux
documentation it's obvious that this is Linux memory policy. Besides,
"Linux memory policy" may refer to other policies, e.g. memory hotplug
policy, and using term NUMA makes the documentation less ambiguous.

Kconfig for 'rwsem-optimized': the new Kconfig expresses this feature
equivalently, while also enabling the script 'features-refresh.sh' to

   "[...] we soft- decouple the refreshing of the entries from the

- move Bit Operations from Basic C Library Functions to Basic
  Kernel Library Functions (now adjacent to Bitmap Operations since
  they are not typical C library functions)

- move Sorting from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions
  since sort functions are more Basic than Math Functions

- move Text Searching from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library
