Subject: [PATCH 11/60] kobject: Make Documentation/kobject.txt a little more coherent.

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au>

While reading Documentation/kobject.txt:

  Note kobject_rename does perform any locking or have a solid notion of
  what names are valid so the provide must provide their own sanity checking
  and serialization.

I expect better: You never see me hard with time word making sentence
coherent stuff.  Ever.
