Hi,

Here are several updates to the mm documentation.

Aside from really minor changes in the first three patches, the updates
are:

* move the documentation of kstrdup and friends to "String Manipulation"
  section
* split memory management API into a separate .rst file
* adjust formating of the GFP flags description and include it in the
  reference documentation.

v2 changes:
* move get_user_pages_fast documentation to "User Space Memory Access" as
  suggested by Matthew
* more elaborate changelog for the fifth patch

  mm/util: make strndup_user description a kernel-doc comment
