Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Rob Herring 441848282c dt: Remove booting-without-of.rst
booting-without-of.rst is an ancient document that first outlined
Flattened DeviceTree on PowerPC initially. The DT world has evolved a
lot in the 15 years since and booting-without-of.rst is pretty stale.
The name of the document itself is confusing if you don't understand the
evolution from real 'OpenFirmware'. Most of what booting-without-of.rst
contains is now in the DT specification (which evolved out of the
ePAPR). The few things that weren't documented in the DT specification
are now.

All that remains is the boot entry details, so let's move these to arch
specific documents. The exception is arm which already has the same
details documented.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
