It works for me.

They wouldn't be in the FAQ.  That's not the right place for them.

They could or should be added to Documentation/SubmittingPatches
and I have just submitted a patch to add them to that file since
there should be a central place to find all of these references.
Oh, that's what you say below....

And you are welcome to send patches for such additions or other
documentation that you think is needed.

mailing lists, forums, etc.

the text of Documentation on LKML
