Cover letter [PATCH 00/15] Updates of in-kernel documentation pointers

Hello.

I've noticed that some of Linux kernel in-tree documentation pointers are no longer valid and decided to check the validity for the rest of them with some one-liner. As it turned out, there are quite a few of them, in part due to latest ReST conversion effort. This patch set aims at amending documentation pointers that are no longer valid with the information about current location. I'm not quite sure about wording/formatting, and do not guarantee that I haven't miss anything, so I hope that this could be at least useful as a starting point.
