[PATCH] Documentation: locking: fix references

From: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com>
Date: 2021-08-23 17:16:00

This patch fixes file references from txt to rst file ending in
ww-mutex-design.rst and futex-requeue-pi.rst.

Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com>

Maybe there are more somewhere else in Documentation? However I caught
these ones in locking.

oh, indeed. Yes, thanks. I will send a v2. :)

I was copy&pasting it and deleted some characters at the end of the

just deleting the last three characters.

Thanks.
