Somehow I have hoped for an answer like that :-) The only thing that
we'd have to do is find a proper place for the kmsg header file,
include/linux/kmsg.h comes to mind. The kmsg-doc script can easily be

about Documentation/kmsg/$ARCH for the architecture specific things and
Documentation/kmsg for the generic parts.
