Merge tag 'docs-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/docs/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "It has been a not-too-busy cycle for docs; here's the highlights:

   - A (hopefully) consensus change to our LLM-attribution requirements,
     removing the specific model name from the Assisted-by tag

   - A couple of new realtime documents

   - Various docs-build-system fixes

   - Ongoing work with the Chinese, Portuguese, and Japanese
     translations

  ...and lots of typo fixes, grammar tweaks, etc"
