Having nothing to do while waiting for my plane to arrive while
returning back from Japan, I ended by writing a small series of 
patches meant to reduce the number of bad Documentation/* 
links that are detected by:
	./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check

I ended by rebasing this patch series against linux-next, because
of those two patches:
	3b0c3ebe2a42 Documentation: e100: Fix docs build error
	805f16a5f12f Documentation: e1000: Fix docs build error

They basically fix documentation builds with upstream Kernel. Both
got merged on -rc2.

The first two patches in this series makes the script to ignore some
false positives.

Patches 3 to 6 corrects the location of some documentation files.

Patches 7 and 8 were actually two patches meant to fix the build
error. I ended by rebasing them over linux-next, as they fix some
troubles with the ReST syntax with causes warnings.

Patch 9 converts Documentation/trace/histogram.txt to ReST
syntax. It also had to be rebased against linux-next, due to some minor
conflicts with:
    064f35a95224 ("tracing: Fix some errors in histogram documentation")

After this series, the script still produces 16 warnings:

include/linux/lsm_hooks.h: Documentation/filesystems/mounting.txt

IMHO, the above should be fixed by the corresponding maintainers.

The ones that scarry me most are the DT binding documentation, as
the binding documentation for some stuff are likely broken.

Btw, two of the above are new on linux-next (include/linux/fs_context.h
and include/linux/lsm_hooks.h) . That makes me wander that we should
likely add some logic (or run the detect script) at checkpatch.pl or make
it to call ./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check.
