I don't really know what "complete" is; I just want my URLs to point
somewhere useful :) So whatever suits you best. At least these links
correctly have titles / reference numbers included alongside, so I can
search for the correct thing myself.

BTW, I think I missed some other bad links in the tree. v4.12 release
still points to these:

origin/master:Documentation/devicetree/bindings/usb/usb-device.txt:5:http://www.firmware.org/1275/bindings/usb/usb-1_0.ps
origin/master:Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.txt:1285:<http://www.openfirmware.org/ofwg/practice/>
