[PATCH v4 21/28] docs: ptp.txt: convert to ReST and move to driver-api
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Wed Jun 12 2019 - 14:01:33 EST
The conversion is trivial: just adjust title markups.
In order to avoid conflicts, let's add an :orphan: tag
to it, to be removed when this file gets added to the
driver-api book.
