Stephen, thanks for starting this documentation; it is almost as if you
were reading our minds, as we were discussing yesterday that we needed a
higher-level document such as this one. :)

I've attached a patch to your document that modifies the way structures
are identified. I ran a grep in the kernel's Documentation/DocBook
directory, and found that most uses of <structname>struct x</structname>
had the word 'struct' within the tags, rather than outside the tags.
(The exceptions I saw were of the form:
"<structname>something</structname> structure..")

So, while this patch may look large, it is really pretty simple.

Thanks again Stephen, Timothy, and Chris. :)
