Kick it out of the kbuild directory.

I am not sure if this is the perfect place, but I added its index
close to the module-signing.

When searching for a place for this documentation, kbuild/ was the
closest I could find. admin-guide/ seems to target system administrators
while the symbol namespace feature documentation is relevant for kernel
developers. I am ok to take maintainership for the file, but the new
location suggested seems not to be a good fit either.

This was my line of thought as well, since the audience of
admin-guide/ is sysadmins and users. Namespaces are mostly relevant to
module authors and kernel developers. Currently, I don't think there
is an existing good place in Documentation/ for this topic :-/
I suppose kernel-hacking/ might be the closest fit, as Adam suggested.

Thanks,

Jessica
