Thanks so much for doing it. This is great start!
Some minor editing is needed here and there.
To make it into official doc do you mind preparing a patch for Jon's doc tree ?
If you think the doc is too volatile and not suitable for kernel.org,
another alternative is to host it on https://github.com/iovisor
since it's LF collaborative project it won't disappear suddenly.
You can be a maintainer of that repo if you like.
