As a general rule, yes, they are.  That said, I'm much happier when these
patches also involve a look at the documentation to ensure that it's still
current and worth keeping and also include some thought as to where the
converted documentation should go in a more rational hierarchy.

A different way of putting it would be: Documentation/ now is a mess.
Simply converting .txt files to RST does not, on its own, reduce the mess
factor much.  But it can be a part of the bigger effort to turn the
kernel's documentation into some sort of coherent whole.

Thanks,

jon
