Ozgur Karatas reported that the very first entry in the CREDITS file had
the wrong tag for name (M: instead of N: - it happened when moving the
entry from the MAINTAINERS file, where 'M:' stands for "Maintainer").

And when I went looking, I found a couple of other cases of wrong
tagging too.

Alan is no longer maintaining this list through the Linux assigned
numbers authority. Make it a collective document by referring to
"the maintainers" in plural throughout, and naming the chardev and
block layer maintainers in particular as parties of involvement.
Cut down and remove some sections that pertained to the process of
maintaining the list at lanana.org and contacting Alan directly.

Make it clear that this document, in the kernel, is the master
document.

Also move paragraphs around so as to emphasize dynamic major number
allocation.

Remove paragraph on 2.6 deprecation, that tag no longer appears
anywhere in the file.

ad5761 is a 1-channel DAC with configurable output range.
The driver uses the regulator interface for its voltage ref.

It shares its register layout with ad5761r, ad5721 and ad5721r.

Differences:
ad5761* are 16 bit, ad5721* are 12 bits.
ad57*1r have an internal reference.

Adds a new single-purpose PIDs subsystem to limit the number of
tasks that can be forked inside a cgroup. Essentially this is an
implementation of RLIMIT_NPROC that applies to a cgroup rather than a
process tree.

However, it should be noted that organisational operations (adding and
removing tasks from a PIDs hierarchy) will *not* be prevented. Rather,
the number of tasks in the hierarchy cannot exceed the limit through
forking. This is due to the fact that, in the unified hierarchy, attach
cannot fail (and it is not possible for a task to overcome its PIDs
cgroup policy limit by attaching to a child cgroup -- even if migrating
mid-fork it must be able to fork in the parent first).

PIDs are fundamentally a global resource, and it is possible to reach
PID exhaustion inside a cgroup without hitting any reasonable kmemcg
policy. Once you've hit PID exhaustion, you're only in a marginally
better state than OOM. This subsystem allows PID exhaustion inside a
cgroup to be prevented.
