Hello, this directory contains the subsequent content of the file proc.rst.

My modification is due to a previous commit e24ccaaf7ec4 ("block: remove
last remaining traces of IDE documentation")
which removed "1.3 IDE devices in /proc/ide" from the subsequent content
and modified the labels of the various items.
However, this previous commit forgot to remove "1.3 IDE devices in
/proc/ide" from the directory itself.
This caused a misalignment between the directory entry and the actual
subsequent content items.

My modification is to remove the "1.3 IDE devices in /proc/ide" that was
forgotten in the previous commit and correct the labels of the other
subsequent items.

Thanks,
Baolin
