[PATCH v3 0/2] Documentation/process: Add a maintainer handbook for KVM x86

[Sean Christopherson]

Dcumentation for contributing to KVM x86, round 3!

v3:
 - Add language to clarify that "reverse fir tree" is also known as
   "reverse Christmas tree or reverse XMAS tree". [Robert, Mingwei]
 - Change guidance for patches/series that touch code outside of x86/kvm
   to recommend/prescribe using a common base, e.g. release candidate,
   not kvm-x86/next. [Bagas, Oliver]

v2:
 - Fix a KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID typo. [Yuan]
 - Give Cthulhu the respect it deserves. [Like]
 - Explicitly state that selftests vs. KVM patches need to maintain
   bisection (when possible). [Like]
 - Change the recommended base from topic branches to "next" (and plan on
   providing stable, persistent git objects via tags). [David W]
 - Add a blurb to provide guidance for series that touch non-x86 arch
   code. [Yu]
 - Clarify when (not) to reference/quote specs (APM and SDM). [Maciej]
 - Add preferences for shortlog length. [Maciej]
 - Exempt things like comment fixes from testing requirements. [Maciej]
 - Add a foreword to try and make the doc less scary to newcomers. [Maciej]
 - Add a rule for testing Documentation/ changes.
 - Clarify that fixes for the current cycle may be carried in the KVM x86
   tree, but are usually taken directly by Paolo. [Robert]
 - Tweak the "Changelog" section to call out that using imperative mood
   and avoiding pronouns is the most important rule.
