This seems like a good idea to me, but can I make a couple of requests?

 - Convert it to RST while you're at it?  It's 99% there already.

 - Let's not add it to the top-level Documentation/ mess; I'm slowly
   trying to bring some order there.  Perhaps a better home would be
   Documentation/kbuild/ ?

Thanks,
