As Dave Chinner points out, we don't have a proper documentation for the ktime_get() family of interfaces, making it rather unclear which of the over 30 (!) interfaces one should actually use in a driver or elsewhere in the kernel. I wrote up an explanation from how I personally see the interfaces, documenting what each of the functions do and hopefully making it a bit clearer which should be used where. This is the first time I tried writing .rst format documentation, so in addition to any mistakes in the content, I probably also introduce nonstandard formatting ;-) I first tried to add an extra section to Documentation/timers/timekeeping.txt, but this is currently not included in the generated API, and it seems useful to have the API docs as part of what gets generated in https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/core-api/index.html#core-utilities instead, so I started a new file there. I also considered adding the documentation inline in the include/linux/timekeeping.h header, but couldn't figure out how to do that in a way that would result both in helpful inline comments as well as readable html output, so I settled for the latter, with a small note pointing to it from the header.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "Small set of fixes for this series. Mostly just minor fixes, the only oddball in here is the sg change. The sg change came out of the stall fix for NVMe, where we added a mempool and limited us to a single page allocation. CONFIG_SG_DEBUG sort-of ruins that, since we'd need to account for that. That's actually a generic problem, since lots of drivers need to allocate SG lists. So this just removes support for CONFIG_SG_DEBUG, which I added back in 2007 and to my knowledge it was never useful.

When kernel-doc:: specified in .rst document without explicit directives, it outputs both comment and DOC: sections. If a DOC: section was explicitly included in the same document it will be duplicated. For example, the output generated for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst [1] has "IDA description" in the "IDA usage" section and in the middle of the API reference.
