My eyesight is not in good shape, which means that I have difficulty
reading the online Linux documentation. Specifically, body text is
oddly small compared to list items and the contrast of various text
elements is too low for me to be able to see easily.
Therefore, alter the HTML theme overrides to make the text larger and
increase the contrast for better visibility, and trust the typeface
choices of the reader's browser.
For the PDF output, increase the text size, use a sans-serif typeface
for sans-serif text, and use a serif typeface for "roman" serif text.

Only the media PDF book was requiring adjustbox, in order to
scale big tables. That worked pretty good with Sphinx versions
1.4 and 1.5, but Spinx 1.6 changed the way tables are produced,
by introducing some weird macros before tabulary.
That causes adjustbox to fail. So, it can't be used anymore,
and its usage was removed from the media book.
So, let's remove it from conf.py and sphinx-pre-install.

Sphinx 1.5 added a new way to change backward colors for note
boxes, but kept backward compatibility with 1.4. On Sphinx 1.6,
the old way stopped working, in favor of a new less hackish
way.
Unfortunately, this is currently too buggy to be used, and
the old way doesn't work anymore. So, we have no option but
to stick with boring notice boxes.
One example of such bug is the notice that it is inside
struct v4l2_plane, at the "bytesused" field.
At least, add a notice about how to use, as maybe some day
the bug will vanish.

Currently, on Sphinx up to version 1.4, pdf output uses a vertical
margin of 1 inch. For upper versions, it uses a margin of 0.5 inches.
That causes both page headers and footers to be very close to the margin
of the sheet. Not all printers support writing like that.
Also, there's no reason why the layout for newer versions would be
different than for previous ones.
So, standardize it, by always setting to 1 inch.

This patch brings scalable figure, image handling and a concept to
embed *render* markups:
* DOT (http://www.graphviz.org)
* SVG
For image handling use the 'image' replacement::
.. kernel-image:: svg_image.svg
:alt: simple SVG image
For figure handling use the 'figure' replacement::
.. kernel-figure:: svg_image.svg
:alt: simple SVG image
SVG image example
Embed *render* markups (or languages) like Graphviz's **DOT** is
provided by the *render* directive.::
.. kernel-render:: DOT
:alt: foobar digraph
:caption: Embedded **DOT** (Graphviz) code.
digraph foo {
"bar" -> "baz";
}
The *render* directive is a concept to integrate *render* markups and
languages, yet supported markups:
* DOT: render embedded Graphviz's **DOT**
* SVG: render embedded Scalable Vector Graphics (**SVG**)

PDF build on Kernel 4.9-rc? returns an error with Sphinx 1.3.x
and Sphinx 1.4.x, when trying to solve some cross-references.
The solution is to redefine the \DURole macro.
However, this is redefined too late. Move such redefinition to
LaTeX preamble and bind it to just the Sphinx versions where the
error is known to be present.
Tested by building the documentation on interactive mode:
make PDFLATEX=xelatex -C Documentation/output/./latex

Set the default highlight language to "none", i.e. do not try to guess
the language and do automatic syntax highlighting on literal blocks.
Eyeballing around the generated documentation, we don't seem to actually
have a lot of literal blocks that would benefit from syntax
highlighting. The C code blocks we do have are typically very short, and
most of the literal blocks are things that shouldn't be highlighted (or,
do not have a pygments lexer). This seems to be true for literal blocks
both in the rst source files and in source code comments.
Not highlighting code is never wrong, but guessing the language wrong
almost invariably leads to silly or confusing highlighting.
At the time of writing, admin-guide/oops-tracing.rst and
admin-guide/ramoops.rst contain good examples of 1) a small C code
snippet not highlighted, 2) a hex dump highligted as who knows what, 3)
device tree block highlighted as C or maybe Python, 4) a terminal
interaction highlighted as code in some language, and finally, 5) some C
code snippets correctly identified as C. I think we're better off
disabling language guessing, and going by explicitly identified
languages for longer code blocks.
It is still possible to enable highlighting on an rst source file basis
using the highlight directive:
.. higlight:: language
and on a literal block basis using the code-block directive:
.. code-block:: language
See http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/latest/markup/code.html for details.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.
The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we
have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution,
thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser.
I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the
old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant
to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into
a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff
around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it.
The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files
are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around
required is minimal.
And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and
more"
