Hey all,

This is a v2 of
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20260109172905.1446923-1-trini@konsulko.com/
where I've rewritten everything from scratch.

The goal of this series is to make it clear that custodians are only
supposed to make very limited changes to patches prior to merging. This
ends up being a small series in that with the current structure of the
document there's not a good place to do that. So this changes the
current document to have the "workflow" section refer back to the
custodian section when discussing the state of a patch itself, converts
what we have today to bullet points and then states the limited
circumstances where custodians should make in-line edits while applying.
