Subject: [PATCH rcu 15/15] doc: Fix htmldocs build warnings of stallwarn.rst
From: Zhen Lei <thunder.leizhen@...wei.com>
Documentation/RCU/stallwarn.rst:
401: WARNING: Literal block expected; none found.
428: WARNING: Literal block expected; none found.
445: WARNING: Literal block expected; none found.
459: WARNING: Literal block expected; none found.
468: WARNING: Literal block expected; none found.
The literal block needs to be indented, so this commit adds two spaces
to each line.
In addition, ':', which is used as a boundary in the literal block, is
replaced by '|'.
