I just went and looked again at draft-ietf-lisp-rfc6830bis and
draft-ietf-lisp-introduction.
I do not see a circularity problem.
6833bis says, as you quote, that "draft-ietf-lisp-introduction describes
the LISP archtiecture."
And draft-ietf-lisp-introduction says "this document introduces the
Locator/ID Separation Protocol ... architecture".
(Yes, I elided the reference to 6830, because it is essentially
meaninglss in that sentence. It is, the protocol definition.)
Seems quite consistent.
I do not see any need to change what is the the bis draft in this regard.
In a perfect world, the introduction draft (in the rfc editor queue)
would point to 6830bis and 6833 bis.
If the ADs agree that is appropriate, they can direct the RFC Editor to
make thaqt change. I do not consider this to be substantive, as the
protocol behavior is not different between the documents (unlike the
ongoing controversy about ICE.) I do not consider such a change necessary.

Hi!
Any change to lisp-intro should be done by discussion with the RFC
Editor, as it is in the RFC Editor queue (pending reference completion).
If the working group considers it acceptable, we could easily ask them
to change the references to 6830 and 6833 to the bis documents (after
all, it is alreay blocked by documents which depend upon those.)
The reference would still be circular: rfc6830bis would point at
lisp-introduction for architecture details, and that would point back here.
If lisp-introduction was just that (an introduction) and the details
were in rfc6830 to start with…. Maybe the easy fix is to just not point
to lisp-introduction from rfc6830bis, because the details should be here
(and rfc6833bis) already.
s/Finally, [I-D.ietf-lisp-introduction] describes the LISP architecture.//
