This duplicates two section to make the diff in the next patch a bit
easier to gasp for humans.

Reorder some steps where the order in which the readers perform them is
not crucial. This is a preparation for a later change that would make
the text much more complex otherwise.
Content just moved, not changed at all in the process.

Tell users that reporting bugs with vendor kernels which are only
slightly patched can be okay in some situations, but point out there's a
risk in doing so.
Adjust some related sections to make them compatible and a bit clearer.
At the same time make them less daunting: we want users to report bugs,
even if they can't test vanilla mainline kernel.

BATCHED_UNMAP_TLB_FLUSH is used on x86 to do batched tlb shootdown by
sending one IPI to TLB flush all entries after unmapping pages rather
than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry.
On arm64, tlb shootdown is done by hardware. Flush instructions are
innershareable. The local flushes are limited to the boot (1 per CPU)
and when a task is getting a new ASID.
So marking this feature as "TODO" is not proper. ".." isn't good as
well. So this patch adds a "N/A" for this kind of features which are
not needed on some architectures.

Changeset f546ff0c0c07 ("Move our minimum Sphinx version to 1.7")
cleaned up some compatibility issues with previous Sphinx
versions, but it also dropped the PDF margin sets.
Without that, the media documentation won't build fine, as
the margins are too wide to display texts with monospaced
fonts.
While here, align the "latex_elements = {" values, and add
a few other sphinxsetup configs in order to allow Sphinx to
wrap long lines on literal blocks.

numa_balancing

On the other hand, setup_numabalancing() is implemented in mm/mempolicy.c
which doesn't depend on architectures.

Currently, kernel-doc warns for function prototype parsing on the
presence of attributes "__attribute_const__" and "__flatten" in the
definition.
There are 166 occurrences in ~70 files in the kernel tree for
"__attribute_const__" and 5 occurrences in 4 files for "__flatten".
Out of 166, there are 3 occurrences in three different files with
"__attribute_const__" and a preceding kernel-doc; and, 1 occurrence in
./mm/percpu.c for "__flatten" with a preceding kernel-doc. All other
occurrences have no preceding kernel-doc.
Add support for "__attribute_const__" and "__flatten" attributes.
A quick evaluation by running 'kernel-doc -none' on kernel-tree reveals
that no additional warning or error has been added or removed by the fix.
