Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
   If not .svg:
     For each line:
       If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
         For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
           If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
           return 200 OK and serve the same content:
             Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

  If there are any URLs to be removed completely or at least not HTTPSified:
  Just clearly say so and I'll *undo my change*.

  If there are any valid, but yet not changed URLs:
  See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/26/837

  If you apply the patch, please let me know.
  Rationale:
  I'd like not to submit patches much faster than you maintainers apply them.

We should really try to finish the new documentation. The one in the kernel tree is very out of date.
