OK!

Ok. Following such logic, I guess we should also add a similar notice to
the main README file too, that will be at the "user/admin-guide".
I would actually be a little more verbose there, providing pointers to the
main documentation books (e. g. the non-subsystem specific ones) there,
like:
The content of this file was moved to
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst
For Kernel's build and admin documentation, please see
Documentation/admin-guide;
For guides about the Kernel development process, please see
Documentation/process;

Ok! "admin-guide" sounds a good name.

Anytime!
