    I'd prefer to include the 'linux/' part so its obvious that we're
    referring to the kernel tree. I've given people pointers to files
    in the past, and just giving "Documentation/foo/bar" usually results
    in "I've looked on the web here, there and somewhere else and can't
    find the file."
