Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
If not .svg:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

If there are any URLs to be removed completely or at least not HTTPSified:
Just clearly say so and I'll *undo my change*.

You can also use the Crash utility to analyze dump files in Kdump
format. Crash is available on Dave Anderson's site at the following URL:

Would you mind to update above url as well?
I'll update all of the URLs not changed yet, but (please) not in this patch
round.

If this series can be taken soon then we can wait and submit a patch
later.

Or just drop this one from your series, I can submit another one to take
the https and crash url together later.

Either works.
Or (if you don't apply as-is) I'll just cover patched+non-patched together in round II.




Dave have moved it to below url instead:
https://crash-utility.github.io/

Thanks
