[PATCH 1/5] Documentation: ext4: Convert includes into toctrees

From: Bagas Sanjaya
Date: Fri Jun 20 2025 - 06:58:29 EST


ext4 docs are organized in three master docs (overview.rst, globals.rst,
and dynamic.rst), in which these include other docs via include::
directive. These docs sturcture is better served by toctrees instead.

Convert the master docs to use toctrees.

Fixes: 0bf1f51e34c4 ("ext4: Add atomic block write documentation")

This actually fixes duplicate label to itself warning as tried to be
fixed in another approach [1], hence the Fixes: tag.
