Subject: [PATCH] coccinelle: misc: update uninitialized_var.cocci documentation
Date:   Mon,  8 Mar 2021 10:30:18 +0300
Message-Id: <20210308073018.108487-1-efremov@linux.com>

Remove the documentation link from the warning message because commit
3942ea7a10c9 ("deprecated.rst: Remove now removed uninitialized_var")
removed the section from documentation. Update the rule documentation
accordingly.
