Merge tag 'docs-4.10' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
 "These are the documentation changes for 4.10.

  It's another busy cycle for the docs tree, as the sphinx conversion
  continues. Highlights include:

   - Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but
     should be more solid now.

   - Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx. Only 27 to
     go... Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and
     integrated.

   - Images in binary formats have been replaced with more
     source-friendly versions.

   - Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of
     various files discussed at the kernel summit.

   - New documentation for the device_link mechanism.

  ... and, of course, lots of typo fixes and small updates"

+ALSA BT87x Driver
+=================
+
+Intro
+=====
+
+You might have noticed that the bt878 grabber cards have actually
+*two* PCI functions:
+::
+
+  $ lspci
+  [ ... ]
+  00:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 (rev 02)
+  00:0a.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 (rev 02)
+  [ ... ]
+
+The first does video, it is backward compatible to the bt848.  The second
+does audio.  snd-bt87x is a driver for the second function.  It's a sound
+driver which can be used for recording sound (and *only* recording, no
+playback).  As most TV cards come with a short cable which can be plugged
+into your sound card's line-in you probably don't need this driver if all
+you want to do is just watching TV...
+
+Some cards do not bother to connect anything to the audio input pins of
+the chip, and some other cards use the audio function to transport MPEG
+video data, so it's quite possible that audio recording may not work
+with your card.
+
+
+Driver Status
+=============
+
+The driver is now stable.  However, it doesn't know about many TV cards,
+and it refuses to load for cards it doesn't know.
+
+If the driver complains ("Unknown TV card found, the audio driver will
+not load"), you can specify the ``load_all=1`` option to force the driver to
+try to use the audio capture function of your card.  If the frequency of
+recorded data is not right, try to specify the ``digital_rate`` option with
+other values than the default 32000 (often it's 44100 or 64000).
+
+If you have an unknown card, please mail the ID and board name to
+<alsa-devel@alsa-project.org>, regardless of whether audio capture works
+or not, so that future versions of this driver know about your card.
+
+
+Audio modes
+===========
+
+The chip knows two different modes (digital/analog).  snd-bt87x
+registers two PCM devices, one for each mode.  They cannot be used at
+the same time.
+
+
+Digital audio mode
+==================
+
+The first device (hw:X,0) gives you 16 bit stereo sound.  The sample
+rate depends on the external source which feeds the Bt87x with digital
+sound via I2S interface.
+
+
+Analog audio mode (A/D)
+=======================
+
+The second device (hw:X,1) gives you 8 or 16 bit mono sound.  Supported
+sample rates are between 119466 and 448000 Hz (yes, these numbers are
+that high).  If you've set the CONFIG_SND_BT87X_OVERCLOCK option, the
+maximum sample rate is 1792000 Hz, but audio data becomes unusable
+beyond 896000 Hz on my card.
+
+The chip has three analog inputs.  Consequently you'll get a mixer
+device to control these.
+
+
+Have fun,
