This broke the docs build for me with:

Sphinx parallel build error:
docutils.utils.SystemMessage: /linux/Documentation/driver-api/dmaengine/client.rst:155: (SEVERE/4) Unexpected section title.

Optional: per descriptor metadata
---------------------------------


The patch below fixes the build. It may not produce the output you
intended, it just makes it bold rather than a heading, but it doesn't
really make sense to have a heading inside a numbered list.

DMAengine provides two ways for metadata support.
