Hi jon,
If we're about to rm applying-patches.rst, at least we also need to add
a warning to the doc, saying "This documentation is obsolete and will be
removed in the future.", while adding the same deprecation message on
scripts/patch-kernel. The script can still be usable and kept around for
a cycle. If no users complain, we will go ahead rm-ing.
Thanks.
