[GIT PATCH] Documentation patches for 2.6.22

Here are some patches that add some translations of some procedural
documentation files to the Documentation/ tree.

I know that kernel development is in English, but translations of a
small subset of documentation files that go over procedures and how to
get involved in the community is something that I feel is important and
will bring in more developers in the end. Having these files in the
kernel tree is a good way to keep a central location that all can see
and easily find, instead of hiding them away on different web sites that
might be harder to update by anyone who needs to do so.

These files change _very_ slowly over time, and are quite easy to keep
up to date by the translators.

These patches have been in the -mm tree for a large number of months.

Please pull from:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/docs-2.6.git/

Patches will be sent as a follow-on to this message to lkml for people
to see.

thanks,

greg k-h
