When reporting a regression, users ideally should CC the subsystem and its maintainers, as that will ensure they get aware of the regression quickly. And if the culprit is known, they should also CC everyone who signed if off; the text mentioned the latter in once place already, but forgot to do so in two other areas where it's relevant. While fixing this also remind readers to check the mailing list archives for issues that need to be reported to a bug tracker, as someone might have reported it by mail only. All of this got triggered by a recent report where these changes would have made a difference.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
