Jocelyn Falempe dbed4a797e drm/panic: Better binary encoding in QR code
The current encoding, is done by converting 13bits of input into 4
decimal digits, that are then encoded efficiently using the numeric
encoding of the QR code specification.
The Fido v2.2 specification [1] uses a similar approach for its
QR-initiated authentication. The only difference is that it converts
7 bytes (56bits) of input into 17 decimal digits. The benefit is that
the algorithm doesn't require to split input bytes into 13bits chunk,
and the ratio is a bit better.
This improvement was proposed by Jó Ágila Bitsch in [2].
drm_panic is still young, and the QR code feature is not widely used,
so it's still time to switch to a common algorithm, shared with a
widely used standard.
I also changed the name of the url parameter, from zl= to z=, so the
website can keep backward compatibility if needed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
