There's an FPU patch now too.  Git seems to handle the conflicts *almost*
seamlessly, though.  So, FYI, I think I'll go ahead and drop this change
into docs-next, which will probably get us a cheery note from Stephen in
the near future.

(Stephen: the change is simply:

  mv Documentation/x86 Documentation/arch/x86

the only fix I had to do in my test merge was to add the new
shadow-stack document in the new directory).

Thanks,

jon
