Hmm... I'd originally wanted this to read more like the name of the
tool than the path to the doc file, but given the :doc: prefix and
backticks are equally ugly, and no less confusing to the plain-text
reader than the filename, I'm happy to have this changed. Particularly
if we're standardising on this across the kernel documentation.
