ata: libata-scsi: fix ata_dsm_trim_pages() kernel-docgrafted
make htmldocs fails with: Documentation/driver-api/libata:604: ./drivers/ata/libata-scsi.c:2301: ERROR: Unexpected indentation. [docutils] The Return: section of ata_dsm_trim_pages() ends its first sentence with a colon and continues with an indented bullet list. reStructuredText requires a blank line before an indented block, so docutils chokes on the list. Simply adding the missing blank line does not work either: Return: is a kernel-doc "special section", which is terminated by the first blank line, so the bullet list would end up in the Description section, detached from the sentence introducing it. Spell the two bounds out as prose instead, so that the Return: section stays self-contained. Documentation-only change. Fixes: e64e6b5dc867 ("ata: libata-scsi: scale DSM TRIM payload by MAX PAGES PER DSM COMMAND") Reported-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/b0a0b8e8-cc4f-4c7b-8bc5-fee0712d405a@redhat.com/ Reviewed-by: Damien Le Moal <dlemoal@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260916130031.29990-2-cassel@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Niklas Cassel <cassel@kernel.org>

+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla timerlat hist** [*OPTIONS*] ...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_description.txt
+
+The **rtla timerlat hist** displays a histogram of each tracer event
+occurrence. This tool uses the periodic information, and the
+**osnoise:** tracepoints are enabled when using the **-T** option.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_hist_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_aa.txt
+
+EXAMPLE
+=======
+In the example below, **rtla timerlat hist** is set to run for *10* minutes,
+in the cpus *0-4*, *skipping zero* only lines. Moreover, **rtla timerlat
+hist** will change the priority of the *timerlat* threads to run under
+*SCHED_DEADLINE* priority, with a *100us* runtime every *1ms* period. The
+*1ms* period is also passed to the *timerlat* tracer. Auto-analysis is disabled
+to reduce overhead ::
+
