120881b9e8 docs: virt: guest-halt-polling.txt convert to ReST
Due to some merge conflict, this file ended being alone under
Documentation/virtual.

The file itself is almost at ReST format. Just minor
adjustments are needed:

- Adjust title markup;
- Adjust a list identation;
- add a literal block markup;
- Add some blank lines.

7d94ab169b docs: virt: convert UML documentation to ReST
Despite being an old document, it contains lots of information
that could still be useful.

The document has a nice style with makes easy to convert to
ReST. So, let's convert it to ReST.

This patch does:

	- Use proper markups for titles;
	- Mark and proper indent literal blocks;
	- don't use an 'o' character for lists;
	- other minor changes required for the doc to be parsed.

2f5947dfca Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virt
Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
grossly misnamed directories.  We usually never use "virtual" as
a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
as seen in the virt/ top-level directory.  Fix up the documentation
to match that.
