Since I've already botched it can I ask for guidance here. The problem is updating the links means making changes that will cause merge conflicts if they go through net-dev tree (since most references are in Documentation/*.rst). But we can't go through docs tree either since that could lead to merge conflicts later as well.
Merge conflicts are a way of life in Documentation/ - everybody messes with it. They are usually pretty easy to resolve. I only see a handful of references to netdev-FAQ.txt in the tree; I would suggest just making the change and being done with it. There shouldn't be any need to do a more complicated dance than that. And to answer your other question, yes of course it's fine (and expected) for this to go through Dave's tree.
