Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Documentation/smatch: fix paths in the examples

A few examples use the '~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch_scripts/' path,
which seems to be a local reference that does not reflect the real
paths in the project (one would not expect 'devel' inside 'smatch').

Use the generic '~/path/to/smatch_dir/' path, which is already used
in some examples.

 If you are running Smatch over the whole kernel you can use the following
 command:

-	~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch_scripts/test_kernel.sh
+	~/path/to/smatch_dir/smatch_scripts/test_kernel.sh

 The test_kernel.sh script will create a .c.smatch file for every file it tests
 and a combined smatch_warns.txt file with all the warnings.

 If you are running Smatch just over one kernel file:

-	~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch_scripts/kchecker drivers/whatever/file.c
+	~/path/to/smatch_dir/smatch_scripts/kchecker drivers/whatever/file.c

 You can also build a directory like this:

-	~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch_scripts/kchecker drivers/whatever/
+	~/path/to/smatch_dir/smatch_scripts/kchecker drivers/whatever/

 The kchecker script prints its warnings to stdout.

 If you are building something else (which is not the Linux kernel) then use
 something like:

-	make CHECK="~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch --full-path" \
-		CC=~/progs/smatch/devel/smatch/cgcc | tee smatch_warns.txt
+	make CHECK="~/path/to/smatch_dir/smatch --full-path" \
+		CC=~/path/to/smatch_dir/smatch/cgcc | tee smatch_warns.txt

 The makefile has to let people set the CC with an environment variable for that
 to work, of course.
