Andrea Parri 621df431b0 Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Cross-reference "tools/memory-model/"
A memory consistency model is now available for the Linux kernel [1],
which "can (roughly speaking) be thought of as an automated version of
memory-barriers.txt" and which is (in turn) "accompanied by extensive
documentation on its use and its design".

Inform the (occasional) reader of memory-barriers.txt of these
developments.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
