[PATCH v4 03/14] docs: netlink: don't ignore generated rst files

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
Date: 2025-06-14 08:56:18
Also in: linux-doc, linux-kernel-mentees, lkml
Subsystem: documentation, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Currently, the build system generates ReST files inside the
source directory. This is not a good idea, specially when
we have renames, as make clean won't get rid of them.

As the first step to address the issue, stop ignoring those
files. This way, we can see exactly what has been produced
at build time inside $(srctree):
