Dunno, but kernel-parameters.txt was already quite long... for a file
that is referenced quite often. Adding admin-guide/ into the path does
not really help.

Maybe admin-guide should go directly into Documentation/ , as that's
what our users are interested in?

Plus, I'm not sure how many developers will figure out that process/
is what describes kernel patch submission process. We have processes
in the kernel, after all...

Could we leave symlinks in place? People say "please follow
CodingStyle" when reviewing patches. Saying "please follow
process/conding-style.rst" ... somehow I don't think that's going to
happen.

Best regards,
									Pavel
