docs: disable KASLR when debugging kernel

commit 6807c84652b0 ("x86: Enable KASLR by default") enables KASLR
by default on x86. While KASLR will confuse gdb which resolve kernel
symbol address from symbol table of vmlinux. We should turn off KASLR for
kernel debugging.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'mauro-exp/docbook3' into death-to-docbook

Mauro says:

This patch series convert the remaining DocBooks to ReST.

The first version was originally
send as 3 patch series:

[PATCH 00/36] Convert DocBook documents to ReST
[PATCH 0/5] Convert more books to ReST
[PATCH 00/13] Get rid of DocBook

The lsm book was added as if it were a text file under
Documentation. The plan is to merge it with another file
under Documentation/security, after both this series and
a security Documentation patch series gets merged.

It also adjusts some Sphinx-pedantic errors/warnings on
some kernel-doc markups.

I also added some patches here to add PDF output for all
existing ReST books.
