2021-01-06doc: Use CONFIG_PREEMPTIONSebastian Andrzej Siewior
CONFIG_PREEMPTION is selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT and by CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Both PREEMPT and PREEMPT_RT require the same functionality which today depends on CONFIG_PREEMPT. Update the documents and mention CONFIG_PREEMPTION. Spell out CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT (instead PREEMPT_RT) since it is an option now.

2021-01-04docs: Fix typos and drop/fix dead links in RCU documentationPaul Gortmaker
It appears the Compaq link moved to a machine at HP for a while after the merger of the two, but that doesn't work either. A search of HP for "wiz_2637" (w and w/o html suffix) comes up empty. Since the references aren't critical to the documents we remove them. Also, the lkml.kernel.org/g links have been broken for ages, so replace them with lore.kernel.org/r links - standardize on lore for all links too. Note that we put off fixing these 4y ago - presumably thinking that a treewide fixup was pending. Probably safe to go fix the RCU ones now. https://lore.kernel.org/r/20160915144926.GD10850@linux.vnet.ibm.com/ Cc: Michael Opdenacker <michael.opdenacker@free-electrons.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: "Paul E.
