Due to commit abd61d1ff8f0 ("scripts: sphinx-pre-install: move it to
tools/docs"), checkpatch.pl --self-test=patterns reported a non-matching
file entry in DOCUMENTATION SCRIPTS. Clearly, there are now multiple
documentation scripts, all located in Documentation/sphinx/ and tools/docs/
and Mauro is the maintainer of those.
Update the DOCUMENTATION SCRIPTS section to cover these directories. While
at it, also make the DOCUMENTATION section cover the subdirectories of
tools/docs/.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
