127734e23a Documentation: best practices for using Link trailers
Based on multiple conversations, most recently on the ksummit mailing
list [1], add some best practices for using the Link trailer, such as:

- how to use markdown-like bracketed numbers in the commit message to
indicate the corresponding link
- when to use lore.kernel.org vs patch.msgid.link domains

413e775efa Documentation: fix links to mailing list services
There have been some changes to the way mailing lists are hosted at
kernel.org. This patch does the following:

1. fixes links that are pointing at the outdated resources
2. removes an outdated patchbomb admonition

We still don't particularly want or welcome huge patchbombs, but they
are less likely to overload our systems.

d436a97181 Docs/mm/index: move allocation profiling document to unsorted documents chapter
The memory allocation profiling document was added to the bottom of the
new outline.  Apparently it was not decided by well-defined guidelines
or a thorough discussions.  Rather than that, it was added there just
because there was no place for such unsorted documents.  Now there is
the chapter.  Move the document to the new place.

9472274c92 Docs/mm/index: rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation'
The intention of 'Legacy Documentation' chapter is to keep the old
documents that not yet sorted into the new outline, and encourage new
documents to be integrated in the new outline from the beginning.

However, the new outline will take some more time to be completed.  It
has started about two years ago, and still many parts are not yet
written.  Also, there is no clear guidline for placing each document for
all cases, for not only the 'legacy' documents, but also for new
documents.  For example, memory allocation profiling document has been
added to the bottom of the new outline.  Apparently it was not following
some well-defined guideliens or a result of a discussion.

Furthermore, the title ("legacy") makes people feel the documents on the
chapter might be outdated or not actively maintained.

Rename 'Legacy Documentation' to 'Unsorted Documentation' and remove the
description saying it is for 'older' documents.  After this change, new
documents that not clear enough where it should be placed on the new
outline can be added on the chapter while well-defined guidelines or
discussion for the new outline is made.
