2019-02-01docs: Use underscore not hyphen in labelTobin C. Harding
sphinx emits warning WARNING: undefined label: memory-allocation ... This seems to be caused by the use of a hyphen in the label name instead of an underscore. Using an underscore for the label name and the reference clears the warning. Use underscore not hyphen in label and reference. Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <tobin@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2018-04-27docs/admin-guide/mm: start moving here files from Documentation/vmMike Rapoport
Several documents in Documentation/vm fit quite well into the "admin/user guide" category. The documents that don't overload the reader with lots of implementation details and provide coherent description of certain feature can be moved to Documentation/admin-guide/mm.
