Thanks Rob, Jon, I've submitted a new patch pointing the two broken links and also usage-model.rst all to https://www.devicetree.org.specifications/.

There were two references to
Documentation/devicetree/booting-without-of.rst for dtb format
information. This file has been removed, so I have changed the links to
Documentation/devicetree/usage-model.rst for this information, which
itself points to https://elinux.org/Device_Tree_Usage for an overview of
the device tree data format.

  The boot loader must load a device tree image (dtb) into system ram
  at a 64bit aligned address and initialize it with the boot data.  The

Except that ... usage-model.rst doesn't actually document the DTB
format.  Perhaps we should instead substitute a link that does what's
promised here?
Yes, it's in the DT spec. I'd point to
'https://www.devicetree.org/specifications/' so it's always going to
show the latest. And that's the link we have elsewhere in the kernel.

usage-model.rst is also something needing updating...
