After merging the powerpc tree, today's linux-next build (htmldocs)

There are other obvious problems with this document (but sphinx seems
to have hung before it reported them).

Like

and

Form 2

I also get the following warning:

Documentation/powerpc/associativity.rst: WARNING: document isn't included in any toctree

And applying the following patch is enough to allow sphinx to finish
(rather than livelocking):
