Stephen Kitt 021622df55 docs: add a script to check sysctl docs
This script allows sysctl documentation to be checked against the
kernel source code, to identify missing or obsolete entries. Running
it against 5.5 shows for example that sysctl/kernel.rst has two
obsolete entries and is missing 52 entries.

README

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.
