All of the .rst files in that sub-directory are like this.
Should they all be patched?

OTOH, there are many files in Documentation/admin-guide/ that use this
pattern. Are they all incorrect?

Exactly how is it "broken?"
Did you read Documentation/doc-guide/sphinx.rst, where it says:

* Please stick to this order of heading adornments:

  1. ``=`` with overline for document title::

       ==============
       Document title
       ==============

  2. ``=`` for chapters::

       Chapters
       ========
