I've gotten a few variants of this patch over the years...I guess maybe
the time has come to apply one, so I did. If the word is too offensive
to be in our docs, though, perhaps it shouldn't be in the changelog

docs: kernel-hacking: be more civil

though, as we mark the passing of the last of Rusty's once plentiful
profanities in this venerable document.
