There exist some errors "404 Not Found" when I click the link
of "MAINTAINERS" [1], "samples/bpf/" [2] and "selftests" [3]
in the documentation "HOWTO interact with BPF subsystem" [4].

As Jesper Dangaard Brouer said, the links work if you are browsing
the document via GitHub [5], so I think maybe it is better to use
the corresponding GitHub links to fix the issues in the kernel.org
official document [4], this change has no influence on GitHub and
looks like more clear.  
No, we really don't want to link to GitHub, that's what we have
kernel.org for.
I fully agree.
I actually liked V3 better.

Back when I wrote the documentation with these links, the BPF doc was
not well integrated with the kernels doc-system.  It is today, so it
makes sense to remove the links (that happens to work on GitHub) as you
did in V3.

Today BPF documentation is nicely organized via this link:
 https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/bpf/index.html
