It would be nice to merge this for v4.11, so the docs are up to do date
with the code for the release.

I'm not sure who owns it though, should it go via Jon as docs
maintainer (added to CC), or via Kees tree or mine?

cheers

If you have other changes queued for v4.11, please take it via your
tree. Otherwise, perhaps the docs tree or mine? (I don't currently
have any fixes queued; I'm just trying to minimize pull requests going
to Linus...)

I have some fixes queued already, so unless Jon yells I'll take it in
the next day or so.
