Can you let us know whether the CC-by-SA 4.0 license is
acceptible or not? That's really the only thing that we need
clarified at this point - if it's OK I'll to pull this into the
XFS tree for the 4.20 merge window. If not, we'll go back to the
drawing board....

OK, I've had a long conversation with the LF lawyer, and she said
clearly that we really should not be introducing CC-SA material
into the kernel source tree.  It's a pain; I really do like CC-SA
better for documentation, but it's not GPL-compatible, and that
creates a problem for the processed docs.

Ok, thanks for following upon this, Jon. We'll just keep it all in
the existing external repo and work out what to do from there.

Cheers,

Dave.
