I'm fine with the idea, but it looks like a couple of tweaks are needed,
in particular to avoid leaving behind dangling references in
Documentation/Makefile that cause build errors.

I think the individual patches probably need a wider CC list as well.
I'd use the get_maintainer script (or git) to see who has taken an
interest in the individual tests and make sure they are aware of the
move.

Thanks,
