Subject: [PATCH 49/53] docs: misc-devices: ibmvmc.rst: avoid using UTF-8 chars
While UTF-8 characters can be used at the Linux documentation,
the best is to use them only when ASCII doesn't offer a good replacement.
So, replace the occurences of the following UTF-8 characters:
- U+2019 ('’'): RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
