dell_rbu.txt: standardize document format

Each text file under Documentation follows a different
format. Some doesn't even have titles!

Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx.

Currently, the document is completely unformatted. Add
titles, do indentation, mark literal blocks.

 The driver supports two types of update mechanism; monolithic and packetized.
 These update mechanism depends upon the BIOS currently running on the system.
 Most of the Dell systems support a monolithic update where the BIOS image is
 copied to a single contiguous block of physical memory.
+
 In case of packet mechanism the single memory can be broken in smaller chunks
 of contiguous memory and the BIOS image is scattered in these packets.
 
 By default the driver uses monolithic memory for the update type. This can be
 changed to packets during the driver load time by specifying the load
-parameter image_type=packet.  This can also be changed later as below
-echo packet > /sys/devices/platform/dell_rbu/image_type

 packet, the user needs to create more such packets out of the entire BIOS
 image file and then arrange all these packets back to back in to one single

+
 This file is then copied to /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data.
 Once this file gets to the driver, the driver extracts packet_size data from
 the file and spreads it across the physical memory in contiguous packet_sized
 space.
+
 This method makes sure that all the packets get to the driver in a single operation.
 
 In monolithic update the user simply get the BIOS image (.hdr file) and copies
 to the data file as is without any change to the BIOS image itself.
 
 Do the steps below to download the BIOS image.

 1) echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/loading
 2) cp bios_image.hdr /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/data

 Also echoing either mono, packet or init in to image_type will free up the
 memory allocated by the driver.
 
 If a user by accident executes steps 1 and 3 above without executing step 2;
 it will make the /sys/class/firmware/dell_rbu/ entries disappear.

 read back the image downloaded.
