dbf35499fb Documentation/security-bugs: Explain why plain text is preferred
The security contact list gets regular reports contained in archive
attachments. This tends to add some back-and-forth delay in dealing with
security reports since we have to ask for plain text, etc.

0288199e1f docs: locking: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones
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 neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`:
            If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
            return 200 OK and serve the same content:
              Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

1cb3863af6 doc: add link to sparse's home page/internal docs
Sparse's home page used to be a wiki (sparse.wiki.kernel.org)
but this wiki only contained a short intro and the release notes.
But nowadays, sparse's main page is sparse.docs.kernel.org,
which contains all what was in the wiki but also other documentation,
mainly oriented about sparse's internals.

So, add a link to this in the kernel documentation.

cba22b1c59 Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: CIFS
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.

When making access control choices from a file-based context, f_cred
must be used instead of current_cred() to avoid confused deputy attacks
where an open file may get passed to a more privileged process. Add a
short paragraph to explicitly state the rationale.
