Subject: [PATCH 0/6] docs: Remove false positives from check-sysctl-docs

Removed false positives from check-sysctl-docs where there where
ctl_tables that were implemented and had documentation but were being
marked as undocumented or unimplemented.

Besides adjusting the patterns in the check-sysctl-docs script, I also
corrected formatting in the kernel.rst and vm.rst doc files (no wording
changes!)

Please get back to me if you have any comment or suggestions
best
