When searching for a place for this documentation, kbuild/ was the
closest I could find. admin-guide/ seems to target system administrators
while the symbol namespace feature documentation is relevant for kernel
developers. I am ok to take maintainership for the file, but the new
location suggested seems not to be a good fit either.

Cheers,
Matthias
