Tim Froidcoeur 2581ac7c2f checkpatch: correct check for kernel parameters doc
Adding a new kernel parameter with documentation makes checkpatch complain

  __setup appears un-documented -- check Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst

The list of kernel parameters has moved to a separate txt file, but
checkpatch has not been updated for this.

Make checkpatch.pl look for the documentation for new kernel parameters
in kernel-parameters.txt instead of kernel-parameters.rst.

Fixes: e52347bd66 ("Documentation/admin-guide: split the kernel parameter list to a separate file")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
