There is an RST mode for Emacs, yes.  But you likely don't really need
it.  RST is a simple format and, in general, we try to keep the markup to
a minimum so that the plain-text files remain as readable as possible.
Most of our documents are 99% RST before anybody gets around to formally
converting them.

Basics in Documentation/doc-guide (or
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/doc-guide/index.html).  There's
