    Subject[PATCH v3 0/3] docs/core-api: add memory allocation guide
    Date
    Hi,

    As Vlastimil mentioned at [1], it would be nice to have some guide about
    memory allocation. This set adds such guide that summarizes the "best
    practices".

    The changes from the RFC include additions and corrections from Michal and
    Randy. I've also added markup to cross-reference the kernel-doc
    documentation.

    I've split the patch into three to separate labels addition to the exiting
    files from the new contents.

    Note that the second patch depends on the mm docs update [2] that Andrew
    took to the -mm tree.

    v2 -> v3:
    * s/HW/hardware
