This improves the top level README situation a little: Instead of starting
with historical information like "This file was moved to..." we add a short
introductory description and point the reader to the documention in a direct
way, avoiding phrases like "Please notice that there are...".

"These are the release notes for Linux version 4." is what the header above
says. There's no real need to say that again.
"Read them carefully," Why would we advise people to read one file carefully
but other file not?

Each text file under Documentation follows a different format. Some
doesn't even have titles!
Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx:
- adjust titles;
- use :Author: for authorship;
- mark literal blocks and adjust identation;

I think the problem was that this was a third patch after two
documentation patches. Where, people put documentation review at the
bottom of their priority list.

Hi Rafael,
Here is the V2 and sending it as RFC this time.
This series tries to cleanup the code around transition-latency and its

is dropped as well.
