It's great that you're interested in improving the documentation. I've CCed
linux-doc list for visibility.

However, please note that we already have existing documentation, and it
might be better to extend what's already there rather than creating
something entirely new. You can refer to:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/development-process.html

If you still feel the need to start a new document and host it remotely, I
suggest updating:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v6.1/process/kernel-docs.html

If I may offer a suggestion, focusing on documenting the challenges you've
encountered with KVM, etc., could be more valuable that trying to cover
everything.
