Subject: [PATCH v3 12/16] docs: PCI: acpi-info.rst: replace some characters
Date: Sun, 16 May 2021 12:18:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <320bafda201827dd63208af55b528ae63bcf8217.1621159997.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1621159997.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
The conversion tools used during DocBook/LaTeX/html/Markdown->ReST
conversion and some cut-and-pasted text contain some characters that
aren't easily reachable on standard keyboards and/or could cause
troubles when parsed by the documentation build system.
Replace the occurences of the following characters:
- U+00a0 (' '): NO-BREAK SPACE
as it can cause lines being truncated on PDF output
