At least we agree on that part.

Too small?  Mauro, it's six lines, one of which reads, in its entirety,
"have fun" :)  The stuff you propose adding is good, but is it really
better than saying "read the git-bisect man page"?  That page is pretty
clear, especially by the standard of git man pages :)

Not sure; when's the last time the objdump stuff was really relevant to
you?  I can certainly see the value of a proper "how to debug the kernel"
guide, talking about the *many* facilities we have for kernel debugging at
this point.  This document isn't that.

I've dropped my deletion patch from the series for now (will likely apply
the rest shortly), but I still think we need to be more willing to dump old
stuff that we can't maintain properly.

Thanks,

jon
