Merge tag 'docs-6.7' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "The number of commits for documentation is not huge this time around,
  but there are some significant changes nonetheless:

   - Some more Spanish-language and Chinese translations

   - The much-discussed documentation of the confidential-computing
     threat model

   - Powerpc and RISCV documentation move under Documentation/arch -
     these complete this particular bit of documentation churn

   - A large traditional-Chinese documentation update

   - A new document on backporting and conflict resolution

   - Some kernel-doc and Sphinx fixes

  Plus the usual smattering of smaller updates and typo fixes"

@@ -742,8 +742,8 @@ overcommit_memory
This value contains a flag that enables memory overcommitment.
When this flag is 0, the kernel attempts to estimate the amount
of free memory left when userspace requests more memory.
When this flag is 0, the kernel compares the userspace memory request
size against total memory plus swap and rejects obvious overcommits.
When this flag is 1, the kernel pretends there is always enough
memory until it actually runs out.
