The file 'Documentation/process/changes.rst' states the listed requirements are for the 4.x kernel version. However, there are requirements updated for the 5.x version, as there might be in other future versions. This patch updates it to 'latest' so the document won't be outdated in the future.

The unit mentioned in the documentation of scheduler statistics is outdated which may mislead the readers. The unit of statistics that is reported by /proc/schedstat is modified to nanosecond, and the unit of statistics that is reported by /proc/PID/schedstat is provided as well to make the context consistent. The rq_cpu_time and the rq_sched_info.run_delay of a run queue, and the sched_info.run_delay of a task are all updated based on the clock of the run queue, while the se.sum_exec_runtime of a task is updated based on the clock_task of the run queue of the task. Both the clock and clock_task are relied on the return value of the function sched_clock() which is in the unit of nanosecond. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 91eeafea ("x86/entry: Switch page fault exception to IDTENTRY_RAW"), the function name of the page fault handler is out of date. And because of commit aa37c51b ("x86/mm: Break out user address space handling"), the description of search_exception_table is not correct anymore. It may mislead the user who wants to use the documentation to figure out the page fault handler. Also, fix typo and add the parentheses after function and macro name. Signed-off-by:
